John 12:36 - The Message

Jesus said all this, and then went into hiding. All these God-signs he had given them and they still didn’t get it, still wouldn’t trust him. This proved that the prophet Isaiah was right:   God, who believed what we preached?   Who recognized God’s arm, outstretched and ready to act?
First they wouldn’t believe, then they couldn’t—again, just as Isaiah said:

   Their eyes are blinded,
      their hearts are hardened,
   So that they wouldn’t see with their eyes
      and perceive with their hearts,
   And turn to me, God,
      so I could heal them.
