Isaiah 6:8-10
Young's Literal Translation
8 And I hear the voice of the Lord, saying: `Whom do I send? and who doth go for Us?' And I say, `Here [am] I, send me.'
9 And He saith, `Go, and thou hast said to this people, Hear ye -- to hear, and ye do not understand, And see ye -- to see, and ye do not know.
10 Declare fat the heart of this people, And its ears declare heavy, And its eyes declare dazzled, Lest it see with its eyes, And with its ears hear, and its heart consider, And it hath turned back, and hath health.'

Isaiah 6:8-10
New International Version
8 Then I heard the voice(A) of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send?(B) And who will go for us?(C)”
And I said, “Here am I.(D) Send me!”
9 He said, “Go(E) and tell this people:
“‘Be ever hearing, but never understanding;
be ever seeing, but never perceiving.’(F)
10 Make the heart of this people calloused;(G)
make their ears dull
and close their eyes.[a](H)
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,(I)
understand with their hearts,
and turn and be healed.”(J)
