John 12:37-40
New King James Version
Who Has Believed Our Report?
37 But although He had done so many (A)signs before them, they did not believe in Him, 38 that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke:
(B)“Lord, who has believed our report?
And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
39 Therefore they could not believe, because Isaiah said again:
40 “He(C) has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts,
(D)Lest they should see with their eyes,
Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn,
So that I should heal them.”
John 3:3-7

4 Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?”
5 Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, (B)unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is (C)flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’

Isaiah 44:18-20
New King James Version
18 (A)They do not know nor understand;
For (B)He has [a]shut their eyes, so that they cannot see,
And their hearts, so that they cannot (C)understand.
19 And no one (D)considers in his heart,
Nor is there knowledge nor understanding to say,
“I have burned half of it in the fire,
Yes, I have also baked bread on its coals;
I have roasted meat and eaten it;
And shall I make the rest of it an abomination?
Shall I fall down before a block of wood?”
20 He feeds on ashes;
(E)A deceived heart has turned him aside;
And he cannot deliver his soul,
Nor say, “Is there not a (F)lie in my right hand?”
