John 12:37-43

37 But though He had performed so many signs before them, yet they were not believing in Him.

38 This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet which he spoke: "¹LORD, WHO HAS BELIEVED OUR REPORT? AND TO WHOM HAS THE ARM OF THE LORD BEEN REVEALED?"

39 For this reason they could not believe, for Isaiah said again,

40 "²HE HAS BLINDED THEIR EYES AND HE ³HARDENED THEIR HEART, SO * THAT THEY WOULD NOT SEE WITH THEIR EYES AND PERCEIVE WITH THEIR HEART, AND BE CONVERTED AND I HEAL THEM"

41 These things Isaiah said because ⁴he saw His glory, and ⁵he spoke of Him.

42 Nevertheless * ⁶many even of ⁷the rulers believed in Him, but ⁸because of the Pharisees they were not confessing Him, for fear * that they would be ⁹put out of the synagogue;

43 ¹⁰for they loved the approval of men rather than the approval of God.
