Isaiah 6:10-12
Christian Standard Bible
10 Make the minds[a] of these people dull;
deafen their ears and blind their eyes;
otherwise they might see with their eyes
and hear with their ears,
understand with their minds,
turn back, and be healed.(A)
11 Then I said, “Until when, Lord?” (B) And he replied:
Until cities lie in ruins without inhabitants,(C)
houses are without people,
the land is ruined and desolate,
12 and the Lord drives the people far away,
leaving great emptiness in the land.

Isaiah 6:10-12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
10 Make the heart of this people sluggish,
dull their ears and close their eyes;
Lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears,
and their heart understand,
and they turn and be healed.(A)
11 “How long, O Lord?” I asked. And he replied:
[a] Until the cities are desolate,
without inhabitants,
Houses, without people,
and the land is a desolate waste.
12 Until the Lord sends the people far away,
and great is the desolation in the midst of the land.

make their ears dull
and close their eyes.[a](B)
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,(C)
understand with their hearts,
and turn and be healed.”(D)
11 Then I said, “For how long, Lord?”(E)
And he answered:
