Isaiah 6:10-12

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

¹⁰ Make the mind of this people dull,
    and stop their ears,
    and shut their eyes,
so that they may not look with their eyes
    and listen with their ears
and comprehend with their minds
    and turn and be healed.”^(A)
11 Then I said, “How long, O Lord?” And he said,
“Until cities lie waste
    without inhabitant,
and houses without people,
    and the land is utterly desolate;^(B)
12 until the Lord sends everyone far away,
    and vast is the emptiness in the midst of the land.^(C)
