Isaiah 6:9-10
Tree of Life Version
9 Then He said:
“Go! Tell this people:
‘Hear without understanding,
and see without perceiving.’[a]
10 Make the heart of this people fat,
their ears heavy, and their eyes blind.
Else they would see with their eyes,
and hear with their ears,
and understand with their heart,
and return, and be healed.”[b]
