Acts 28:26-29

New International Reader's Version

²⁶“ ‘Go to your people. Say to them,
“You will hear but never understand.
    You will see but never know what you are seeing.”
²⁷These people’s hearts have become stubborn.
    They can barely hear with their ears.
    They have closed their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes.
    They might hear with their ears.
    They might understand with their hearts.
They might turn, and then I would heal them.’ (Isaiah 6:9,10)

^28-29“Here is what I want you to know. God has sent his salvation to the Gentiles. And they will listen!”

“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)
