And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.

The verse 9 is found in chapter 6 of Isaiah. Isaiah’s vision in the temple introduces the concept of Yahweh’s absolute holiness. Before the vision, the prophet recognizes his own impurity and that of his people; the coal taken from the altar symbolizes purification before the mission. When Isaiah responds, “Here am I,” prophetic calling becomes linked to an experience of grace and to proclaiming a message that will encounter resistance.

Und er sprach: Gehe hin und sprich zu diesem Volk: Höret, und verstehet's nicht; sehet, und merket's nicht!
Y dijo: Anda, y di a este pueblo: Oíd bien, y no entendáis; ved por cierto, mas no comprendáis.
Él dijo: «Ve y dile a este pueblo: “Escuchen bien, pero no entiendan; miren bien, pero no comprendan”.
Il dit alors: Va, et dis à ce peuple: Vous entendrez, et vous ne comprendrez point; Vous verrez, et vous ne saisirez point.
Ed egli disse: Va’, e di’ a questo popolo: Ascoltate pure, ma non intendiate; e riguardate pure, ma non conosciate.
Então disse ele: Vai, e dize a este povo: Ouvis, de fato, e não entendeis, e vedes, em verdade, mas não percebeis.
他說:「你去告訴這百姓說: 『你們聽了又聽,卻不明白; 看了又看,卻不曉得。』
