Isaiah 48:8
English Standard Version
8 You have never heard, you have never known,
from of old your ear has not been opened.
For I knew that you would surely deal treacherously,
and that (A)from before birth you were called a rebel.
Psalm 58:3
English Standard Version
3 The wicked are (A)estranged from the womb;
they go astray from birth, speaking lies.
John 12:39-40
English Standard Version
39 Therefore they (A)could not believe. For again Isaiah said,
40 (B)“He has blinded their eyes
and (C)hardened their heart,
lest they see with their eyes,
and understand with their heart, and turn,
and I would heal them.”
Matthew 13:13-15
English Standard Version
13 This is why I speak to them in parables, because (A)seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, (B)nor do they understand. 14 Indeed, in their case the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled that says:
(C)“‘“You will indeed hear but never understand,
and you will indeed see but never perceive.”
15 For this people's heart has grown dull,
and with their ears (D)they can barely hear,
and (E)their eyes they have closed,
lest they should see with their eyes
and hear with their ears
and (F)understand with their heart
and (G)turn, and I would heal them.’
Malachi 2:11
English Standard Version
11 Judah has been (A)faithless, and abomination has been committed in Israel and in Jerusalem. For (B)Judah has profaned the sanctuary of the Lord, which he loves, and has married the daughter of a foreign god.

3 and say, Thus says the Lord God to Jerusalem: Your origin and your birth are of the land of the Canaanites; your father was an (A)Amorite and your mother a (B)Hittite. 4 And as for your birth, (C)on the day you were born your cord was not cut, nor were you washed with water to cleanse you, nor rubbed with salt, nor wrapped in swaddling cloths. 5 No eye pitied you, to do any of these things to you out of compassion for you, (D)but you were cast out on the open field, for you were abhorred, (E)on the day that you were born.

English Standard Version
10 (A)To whom shall I speak and give warning,
that they may hear?
(B)Behold, their ears are uncircumcised,
(C)they cannot listen;
behold, (D)the word of the Lord is to them an object of scorn;
they take no pleasure in it.

7 And I thought, ‘After she has done all this she will return to me,’ but she did not return, and her treacherous (A)sister Judah saw it. 8 She saw that for all the adulteries of that faithless one, Israel, (B)I had sent her away with (C)a decree of divorce. (D)Yet her treacherous sister Judah did not fear, but she too went (E)and played the whore. 9 Because she took her whoredom lightly, she polluted the land, committing adultery with (F)stone and tree. 10 Yet for all this her treacherous sister Judah did not return to me (G)with her whole heart, but in pretense, declares the Lord.”
11 And the Lord said to me, (H)“Faithless Israel has shown herself more righteous than treacherous Judah.
