Acts 28:27-29
1599 Geneva Bible
27 For the heart of this people is waxed fat, and their ears are dull of hearing, and with their eyes have they [a]winked, lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and should return that I might heal them.
28 [b]Be it known therefore unto you, that this salvation of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they shall hear it.
29 [c]And when he had said these things, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.
