(C)“You will indeed hear but never understand,
and you will indeed see but never perceive.”
27 (D)For this people's heart has grown dull,
and with their ears they can barely hear,
and their eyes they have closed;
lest they should see with their eyes
and hear with their ears
and understand with their heart
and (E)turn, and I would heal them.’

10 let their eyes be darkened so that they cannot see,
and bend their backs forever.”
