John 12:39-43

John 12:39-43

[39] they could  not  believe,  because  that Esaias  said  again,  [40] He hath blinded  their  eyes,  and  hardened  their  heart;  with their eyes,  nor  understand  with their heart,  and  I should heal  them.  [41] said  Esaias,  his  glory,  and  spake  of  him.  [42] Nevertheless  among  the chief rulers  also  many  believed  on  him;  but  because  of the Pharisees  not  confess  they should be  put out of the synagogue:  [43] For  they loved  the praise  of men  more  than  the praise  of God.
