Acts 28:27
ਇਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਦੀ ਬੁੱਧੀ ਮੋਟੀ ਹੋ ਚੁੱਕੀ ਹੈ। ਇਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਦੇ ਕੰਨ ਹਨ ਪਰ ਇਹ ਸੁਣਦੇ ਨਹੀਂ। ਇਹ ਲੋਕ ਵੇਖਣ ਤੋਂ ਇਨਕਾਰ ਕਰਦੇ ਹਨ। ਇਹ ਇਸ ਲਈ ਵਾਪਰਿਆ ਹੈ ਤਾਂ ਜੋ ਇਹ ਆਪਣੀਆਂ ਅੱਖਾਂ ਨਾਲ ਨਹੀਂ ਵੇਖਣਗੇ ਨਾਹੀ ਆਪਣੇ ਕੰਨਾਂ ਨਾਲ ਸੁਨਣਗੇ ਅਤੇ ਨਾ ਹੀ ਆਪਣੇ ਦਿਮਾਗਾਂ ਨਾਲ ਸਮਝਣਗੇ। ਇੰਝ ਇਸ ਲਈ ਵਾਪਰਿਆ ਹੈ ਤਾਂ ਜੋ ਇਹ ਚੰਗੇ ਹੋਣ ਲਈ ਮੇਰੇ ਵੱਲ ਮੁੜਨਗੇ।’
