John 12:39-43

Noyes(i) 39 For this cause they could not believe, because Isaiah said again, 40 "He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; lest they should see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and turn from their ways, and I should heal them." 41 These things said Isaiah, because he saw his glory, and spoke of him. 42 Yet even of the rulers many believed in him; but on account of the Pharisees they did not acknowledge him, lest they should be put of the synagogue; 43 for they loved the glory that is of men more than the glory that is of God.
