In context
10 Maana Yahwe ameachila roho wake katika usingizi wa kina, Ameyafunga macho yako, manabii, na amefunika kichwa chako, waonaji.
11 Ufunuo wote umekuja kwako kama maneno ya kitabu kilichotiwa muhuri, ambacho watu wanaweza kumpa mtu anayejifunza, na kusema hivi, ''Soma hiki.'' na atasema, ''Siwezi maana imetiwa muhuri.''
12 Kama kitabu kitapewa kwa mtu asiyeweza kusoma, na kumwambia, '''Soma hiki,'' na anasema, ''Siwezi kusoma.''

14 Hivyo basi, tazama, Nitaendelea kufanya mambo ya ajabu mwiongoni mwa watu hawa, maajabu baada ya maajabu. Hekima ya wenye busara itatoweka, na uelewa wa watu wenye busara utatokomea.''
