用比喻的因由

10 無人的時候,跟隨耶穌的人和十二個門徒問他這比喻的意思。 11 耶穌對他們說:「神國的奧祕只叫你們知道,若是對外人講,凡事就用比喻, 12 叫『他們看是看見,卻不曉得,聽是聽見,卻不明白;恐怕他們回轉過來,就得赦免』。」

10 (B)But when He was alone, those around Him with the twelve asked Him about the parable. 11 And He said to them, “To you it has been given to (C)know the [a]mystery of the kingdom of God; but to (D)those who are outside, all things come in parables, 12 so that

(E)‘Seeing they may see and not perceive,
And hearing they may hear and not understand;
Lest they should turn,
And their sins be forgiven them.’

10 And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.

11 And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.

    and ever hearing but never understanding;
otherwise they might turn and be forgiven!’[a](C)
