Let their eyes grow weak so they can’t see. Let their backs be bent forever.

愿他们的眼睛昏蒙，不得看见；愿你使他们的腰常常战抖。

愿他们的眼睛昏花，看不见；求你使他们的腰常常战抖。

愿他们的眼睛昏花，看不见；求你使他们的腰常常战抖。

愿他们眼目昏暗，无法看见；愿他们哆哆嗦嗦，直不起腰来。

愿他们的眼睛昏花，不能看见；愿他们的腰不停地战抖。

愿他们的眼睛变为昏暗，不能看见；求你使他们的腰一直颤抖。

願他們的眼睛昏矇，不得看見；願你使他們的腰常常戰抖。

願他們的眼睛昏花，看不見；求你使他們的腰常常戰抖。

願他們的眼睛昏花，看不見；求你使他們的腰常常戰抖。

願他們眼目昏暗，無法看見；願他們哆哆嗦嗦，直不起腰來。

願他們的眼睛昏花，不能看見；願他們的腰不停地戰抖。

願他們的眼睛昏矇、不能看見；願他們的腰不斷地戰抖搖晃。

願他們的眼睛變為昏暗，不能看見；求你使他們的腰一直顫抖。

其目昏眊不見、其腰戰慄不已兮、

願厥目盲眯不明、厥體戰栗不已兮、

願其目昏不能見、願主使其腰弱無力、

願其筵席之化為羅網兮。俾紛紛然而自罹。

May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see, and their backs be bent forever.

Let their eyes be darkened, so that they cannot see, and make their loins tremble continually.

Let their eyes go blind so they cannot see, and make their bodies shake continually.

Let their eyes grow too dim to see, and let their hips continually quake.

May their eyes grow dim so that they cannot see, And make their hips shake continually.

Let their eyes be darkened, so that they do not see; And make their loins shake continually.

Let their eyes be darkened, so that they cannot see; And make their loins continually to shake.

Let their eyes grow too dim to see, and let their loins continually shake.

Let their eyes be darkened, that they see not; and make their loins continually to shake.

May their eyes be blinded! Make them shake violently!

Let their eyes be darkened, so that they can’t see. Let their backs be continually bent.

His face turned pale. He was so afraid that his legs became weak. And his knees were knocking together.

So he said,“ Go and speak to these people. Tell them,“‘ You will hear but never understand. You will see but never know what you are seeing.’Make the hearts of these people stubborn. Plug up their ears. Close their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes. They might hear with their ears. They might understand with their hearts. And they might turn to me and be healed.”

Let their eyes grow dark so they can’t see. Let their backs be bent forever.”( Psalm 69:22, 23)

Ask and see. Can a man give birth to children? Then why do I see every strong man with his hands on his stomach? Each of them is acting like a woman having a baby. Every face is as pale as death.

“‘ Go to your people. Say to them,“ You will hear but never understand. You will see but never know what you are seeing.”These people’s hearts have become stubborn. They can barely hear with their ears. They have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes. They might hear with their ears. They might understand with their hearts. They might turn, and then I would heal them.’( Isaiah 6:9, 10)

For this reason, they could not believe. As Isaiah says in another place,“ The Lord has blinded their eyes. He has closed their minds. So they can’t see with their eyes. They can’t understand with their minds. They can’t turn to the Lord. If they could, he would heal them.”( Isaiah 6:10)

The vision fills my body with pain. Pains take hold of me. They are like the pains of a woman having a baby. I am shaken by what I hear. I’m terrified by what I see.My heart grows weak. Fear makes me tremble. I longed for evening to come. But it brought me horror instead of rest.

Among those nations you won’t find any peace. There won’t be any place where you can make your home and rest your feet. The Lord will give you minds filled with worry. He’ll give you eyes worn out from looking for help. You won’t have any hope in your hearts.Your lives will always be in danger. You will be filled with fear night and day. You will never be sure you are safe.In the morning you will say,“ We wish it were evening!” In the evening you will say,“ We wish it were morning!” Your hearts will be filled with fear. The things you see will terrify you.

Brothers and sisters, here is a mystery I want you to understand. It will keep you from being proud. Part of Israel has refused to obey God. That will continue until the full number of Gentiles has entered God’s kingdom.

In them the words of the prophet Isaiah come true. He said,“‘ You will hear but never understand. You will see but never know what you are seeing.The hearts of these people have become stubborn. They can barely hear with their ears. They have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes. They might hear with their ears. They might understand with their hearts. They might turn to the Lord, and then he would heal them.’( Isaiah 6:9, 10)

But their minds were made stubborn. To this day, the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. The veil has not been removed. Only faith in Christ can take it away.

People of Jerusalem, be shocked and amazed. Make yourselves blind so you can’t see anything. Get drunk, but not from wine. Be unsteady on your feet, but not because of beer.The Lord has made you fall into a deep sleep. He has closed the eyes of your prophets. He has covered the heads of your seers so they can’t see.
