Isaiah 6:9-12

New American Standard Bible

‘Keep on ^(A)listening, but do not understand;
And keep on looking, but do not gain knowledge.’
^10 (B)Make the hearts of this people ^[a](C)insensitive,
Their ears ^[b]dull,
And their eyes ^[c]blind,
^(D)So that they will not see with their eyes,
Hear with their ears,
Understand with their hearts,
And return and be healed.”

“Until ^(F)cities are devastated and without inhabitant,
Houses are without people
And the land is utterly desolate,
¹² The Lord has ^(G)completely removed people,
And there ^[d]are many ^(H)forsaken places in the midst of the land.
