Matthew 13:11-13
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
11 And the One, having responded, said to them, “Because it has been given to you to know[a] the mysteries[b] of the kingdom of the heavens. But it has not been given to those ones. 12 For whoever has— it will be given to him, and he will be caused to abound. But whoever does not have— even what he has will be taken-away from him. 13 For this reason I am speaking to them in parables— because while seeing, they are not seeing; and while hearing, they are not hearing, nor understanding.

New International Version
11 He replied, “Because the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven(A) has been given to you,(B) but not to them. 12 Whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them.(C) 13 This is why I speak to them in parables:
“Though seeing, they do not see;
    though hearing, they do not hear or understand.(D)
Matthew 13:11-13
New King James Version
11 He answered and said to them, “Because (A)it has been given to you to know the [a]mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given. 12 (B)For whoever has, to him more will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. 13 Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.
