And he replied:
Go! Say to these people:
Keep listening, but do not understand;
keep looking, but do not perceive.
Make the minds[fn] of these people dull;
deafen their ears and blind their eyes;
otherwise they might see with their eyes
and hear with their ears,
understand with their minds,
turn back, and be healed.
Isaiah said, “Listen, house of David! Is it not enough for you to try the patience of men? Will you also try the patience of my God?

Pain grips me, like the pain of a woman in labor.
I am too perplexed to hear,
too dismayed to see.
My people who have been crushed
on the threshing floor,
I have declared to you
what I have heard from the LORD of Armies,
the God of Israel.
From the ends of the earth we hear songs:

But I said, “I waste away! I waste away![fn]
Woe is me.”
The treacherous act treacherously;
the treacherous deal very treacherously.
He had said to them,
“This is the place of rest;
let the weary rest;
this is the place of repose.”
But they would not listen.
Every time it passes through,
it will carry you away;
it will pass through every morning —
every day and every night.
Only terror will cause you
to understand the message.[fn]
So now, do not scoff,
or your shackles will become stronger.

a decree of destruction for the whole land.

the eyes of the blind will see.

“You will be delivered by returning and resting;
your strength will lie in quiet confidence.
But you are not willing.”

and speaks rightly,

and shuts his eyes against evil schemes —
You will no longer see the barbarians,
a people whose speech is difficult to comprehend —
who stammer in a language that is not understood.

you peoples, pay attention!
Let the earth and all that fills it hear,
the world and all that comes from it.

No one announced it,
no one told it,
no one heard your words.
