John 12:40-42
Holman Christian Standard Bible
40 He has blinded(A) their eyes
and hardened their hearts,(B)
so that they would not see with their eyes
or understand with their hearts,
and be converted,(C)
and I would heal them.(D)[a]
41 Isaiah said these things because[b] he saw His glory(E) and spoke about Him.
42 Nevertheless, many did believe in Him even among the rulers,(F) but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, so they would not be banned from the synagogue.
