And he said, “Go, and say to this people:

(A)“‘Keep on hearing,[a] but do not understand;
keep on seeing,[b] but do not perceive.’

13 This is why I speak to them in parables, because (A)seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, (B)nor do they understand. 14 Indeed, in their case the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled that says:

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