Isaiah 6:9-11

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁹ And he said: Go, and thou shalt say to this people: Hearing, hear, and understand not: and see the vision, and know it not.

¹⁰ Blind the heart of this people, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes: lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and be converted and I heal them.

¹¹ And I said: How long, O Lord? And he said: Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land shall be left desolate.
