John 12:39-40

39 Therefore they ^acould not believe. For again Isaiah said,

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

Acts 28:26-27

26 ^d“‘Go to this people, and say,
^e“You will indeed hear but never understand,
and you will indeed see but never perceive.”
27 ^fFor 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 ^gturn, and I would heal them.’

Romans 11:7-8

7 What then? ^hIsrael failed to obtain what it was seeking. The elect obtained it, but the rest ⁱwere hardened, 8 as it is written,

^j“God gave them a spirit of stupor,
^keyes that would not see
and ears that would not hear,
down to this very day.”
