40  ^v“He has blinded their eyes

and ^whardened their heart,

lest they see with their eyes,

and understand with their heart, and turn,

and I would heal them.”

26  ^e“‘Go to this people, and say,

“You will indeed hear but never understand,

and you will indeed see but never perceive.”

27  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 ^fturn, and I would heal them.’

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

keep on seeing,² but do not perceive.’

10  ^fMake the heart of this people dull,³

and their ears heavy,

and ^gblind their eyes;

lest they see with their eyes,

and hear with their ears,

and understand with their hearts,

and turn and be healed.”
