Acts 28:26-28

International Children’s Bible

²⁶‘Go to this people and say:
You will listen and listen, but you will not understand.
    You will look and look, but you will not learn.
²⁷For these people have become stubborn.
    They don’t hear with their ears.
    And they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise, they might really understand
    what they see with their eyes
    and hear with their ears.
They might really understand in their minds.
If they did this, they would come back to me and be forgiven.’ Isaiah 6:9-10

²⁸“I want you Jews to know that God has also sent his salvation to the non-Jewish people. They will listen!”

New International Version

²⁶“‘Go to this people and say,
“You will be ever hearing but never understanding;
    you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.”
²⁷For this people’s heart has become calloused;^(A)
    they hardly hear with their ears,
    and they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
    hear with their ears,
    understand with their hearts
and turn, and I would heal them.’^[a]^(B)
