Deuteronomy 29:4

4 But to this day ^athe Lord has not given you a heart to understand or eyes to see or ears to hear.

Isaiah 6:9

9 And he said, “Go, and say to this people:

^b“‘Keep on hearing, ^{▼▼Or Hear indeed} but do not understand;
keep on seeing, ^{▼▼Or see indeed} but do not perceive.’

Isaiah 29:14

14 therefore, behold, ^eI will again
do wonderful things with this people,
with wonder upon wonder;
and ^fthe wisdom of their wise men shall perish,
and the discernment of their discerning men shall be hidden.”

Isaiah 44:18

18 They know not, nor do they discern, for he has shut their eyes, so that they cannot see, and their hearts, so that they cannot understand.

Jeremiah 5:21

21 “Hear this, ^gO foolish and senseless people,
^hwho have eyes, but see not,
who have ears, but hear not.

Matthew 13:14-17

14 Indeed, in their case the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled that says:

ⁱ“‘“You will indeed hear but never understand,
and you will indeed see but never perceive.”
15 For this people’s heart has grown dull,
and with their ears ^jthey can barely hear,
and ^ktheir eyes they have closed,
lest they should see with their eyes
and hear with their ears
and ^lunderstand with their heart
and ^mturn, and I would heal them.’
16 But ⁿblessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear. 17 ^oFor truly, I say to you, ^pmany prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.

John 12:40

40 ^q“He has blinded their eyes
and ^rhardened their heart,
lest they see with their eyes,
and understand with their heart, and turn,
and I would heal them.”
