Old Testament

New Testament

John 12:36-42 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

36. While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may be sons of the Light." Jesus spoke these things, and then he went away and hid himself from them.

37. And although he had done such great signs in their presence, they did not believe in him,

38. so that the word of the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled, which says: "Lord, who has believed in our hearing? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?"

39. Because of this, they were not able to believe, for Isaiah said again:

40. "He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, so that they may not see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and be converted: and then I would heal them."

41. These things Isaiah said, when he saw his glory and was speaking about him.

42. Yet truly, many of the leaders also believed in him. But because of the Pharisees, they did not confess him, so that they would not be cast out of the synagogue.
