Thou heardest

And He replied:

Go! Say to these people:
Keep listening, but do not understand;
keep looking, but do not perceive.

Lord, Your hand is lifted up to take action,
but they do not see it.
They will see Your zeal for Your people,
and they will be put to shame.
The fire for Your adversaries will consume them!

an overwhelming urge to sleep;
He has shut your eyes—the prophets,
