Acts 28:22-28

English Standard Version

²²But we desire to hear from you what your views are, for with regard to this ^(A)sect we know that everywhere ^(B)it is spoken against.”

²³When they had appointed a day for him, they came to him at his lodging in greater numbers. From morning till evening ^(C)he expounded to them, testifying to ^(D)the kingdom of God and ^(E)trying to convince them about Jesus ^(F)both from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets. ²⁴And ^(G)some were convinced by what he said, but others disbelieved. ²⁵And disagreeing among themselves, they departed after Paul had made one statement: ^(H)“The Holy Spirit was right in saying to your fathers through Isaiah the prophet:

²⁶^(I)“‘Go to this people, and say,
^(J)“You will indeed hear but never understand,
    and you will indeed see but never perceive.”
²⁷^(K)For this people's heart has grown dull,
    and with their ears they can barely hear,
    and their eyes they have closed;
lest they should see with their eyes
    and hear with their ears
and understand with their heart
    and ^(L)turn, and I would heal them.’
