Isaiah 6:10-12
GOD’S WORD Translation
10 Make these people close-minded.
Plug their ears.
Shut their eyes.
Otherwise, they may see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their minds,
and return and be healed.”
11 I asked, “How long, O Lord?”
And he replied,
“Until the cities lie in ruins with no one living in them,
the houses have no people,
and the land is completely desolate.
12 The Lord will send his people far away,
and a large area in the middle of the land will be abandoned.
Isaiah 6:10-12
New International Version

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:
