John 12:40 in Context — John 12
38 afin que s’accomplît la parole qu’Ésaïe, le prophète, a prononcée: Seigneur, Qui a cru à notre prédication? Et à qui le bras du Seigneur a-t-il été révélé?
39 Aussi ne pouvaient-ils croire, parce qu’Ésaïe a dit encore:
40 Il a aveuglé leurs yeux; et il a endurci leur cœur, De peur qu’ils ne voient des yeux, Qu’ils ne comprennent du cœur, Qu’ils ne se convertissent, et que je ne les guérisse.
41 Ésaïe dit ces choses, lorsqu’il vit sa gloire, et qu’il parla de lui.
42 Cependant, même parmi les chefs, plusieurs crurent en lui; mais, à cause des pharisiens, ils n’en faisaient pas l’aveu, dans la crainte d’être exclus de la synagogue.
