¹⁰ They close their hearts to pity;
    with their mouths they speak arrogantly.^(A)

²⁷ For this people’s heart has grown dull,
    and their ears are hard of hearing,
        and they have shut their eyes;

    and listen with their ears
and understand with their heart and turn—
    and I would heal them.’

¹⁰ Make the mind of this people dull,
    and stop their ears,
    and shut their eyes,
so that they may not look with their eyes
    and listen with their ears
and comprehend with their minds
    and turn and be healed.”^(A)

¹⁶ I will delight in your statutes;
    I will not forget your word.^(A)

⁷ Their eyes swell out with fatness;
    their hearts overflow with follies.^(A)

³⁵ Lead me in the path of your commandments,
    for I delight in it.

⁸ I delight to do your will, O my God;
    your law is within my heart.”^(A)
