Matthew 13:13-15
English Standard Version
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.’
Matthew 13:13-15
New International Version
13 This is why I speak to them in parables:
“Though seeing, they do not see;
though hearing, they do not hear or understand.(A)
14 In them is fulfilled(B) the prophecy of Isaiah:
“‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding;
you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.
15 For this people’s heart has become calloused;
they hardly hear with their ears,
and they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their hearts
and turn, and I would heal them.’[a](C)

(C)“God gave them a spirit of stupor,
(D)eyes that would not see
and ears that would not hear,
down to this very day.”
9 And David says,
(E)“Let their table become a snare and a trap,
a stumbling block and a retribution for them;
10 let their eyes be darkened so that they cannot see,
and bend their backs forever.”
