Isaiah 6:8-10
New King James Version
8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying:
“Whom shall I send,
And who will go for (A)Us?”
Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.”
9 And He said, “Go, and (B)tell this people:
‘Keep on hearing, but do not understand;
Keep on seeing, but do not perceive.’
10 “Make (C)the heart of this people dull,
And their ears heavy,
And shut their eyes;
(D)Lest they see with their eyes,
And hear with their ears,
And understand with their heart,
And return and be healed.”
Acts 28:25-27
New King James Version
25 So when they did not agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had said one word: “The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to [a]our fathers, 26 saying,
(A)‘Go to this people and say:
“Hearing you will hear, and shall not understand;
And seeing you will see, and not perceive;
27 For the hearts of this people have grown dull.
Their ears are hard of hearing,
And their eyes they have closed,
Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears,
Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn,
So that I should heal them.” ’
