If it is given to one who can read and they are told, 'Read this, please,' they respond, 'I cannot, for it is sealed.' 12 Or if the book is handed to someone who cannot read, and they are told, 'Read this, please,' they answer, 'I do not know how to read.'

Since they have rejected the word of the LORD, what wisdom do they really have?
