Acts 28:23-27

23 When they had appointed a day for him, they came to him at his lodging in greater numbers. From morning till evening ^ahe expounded to them, testifying to ^bthe kingdom of God and ^ctrying to convince them about Jesus ^dboth from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets. 24 And ^esome were convinced by what he said, but others disbelieved. 25 And disagreeing among themselves, they departed after Paul had made one statement: ^f“The Holy Spirit was right in saying to your fathers through Isaiah the prophet:

26 ^g“‘Go to this people, and say,
^h“You will indeed hear but never understand,
and you will indeed see but never perceive.”
27 ⁱFor this people’s heart has grown dull,
and with their ears they can barely hear,
and their eyes they have closed;
lest they should see with their eyes
and hear with their ears
and understand with their heart
and ^jturn, and I would heal them.’
