Isaiah 6:9-10 (Listen)

And he said, “Go, and say to this people:

d“‘Keep on hearing,1 but do not understand;

keep on seeing,2 but do not perceive.’

10 eMake the heart of this people fdull,3

and their ears heavy,

and blind their eyes;

glest they see with their eyes,

and hear with their ears,

and understand with their hearts,

and turn and be healed.”
