    and understand with their heart, and turn,
    and I would heal them.”

41 Isaiah said these things because (F)he saw his glory and (G)spoke of him. 42 Nevertheless, (H)many even of the authorities believed in him, but (I)for fear of the Pharisees they did not (J)confess it, so that they would not be (K)put out of the synagogue; 43 (L)for they loved the glory that comes from man more than the glory that comes from God.
