John 12:36-42

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁶ Whilst you have the light, believe in the light, that you may be the children of light. These things Jesus spoke; and he went away, and hid himself from them.

³⁷ And whereas he had done so many miracles before them, they believed not in him:

³⁸ That the saying of Isaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he said: Lord, who hath believed our hearing? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?

³⁹ Therefore they could not believe, because Isaias said again:

⁴⁰ He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.

⁴¹ These things said Isaias, when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.

⁴² However, many of the chief men also believed in him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, that they might not be cast out of the synagogue.
