Matthew 13:14-15
New American Standard Bible
14 And [a]in their case the prophecy of Isaiah is being fulfilled, which says,
‘[b](A)You shall keep on listening, [c]but shall not understand;
And [d]you shall keep on looking, [e]but shall not perceive;
15 (B)For the heart of this people has become dull,
With their ears they scarcely hear,
And they have closed their eyes,
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
Hear with their ears,
Understand with their heart, and return,
And I would heal them.’

New American Standard Bible
9 And He said, “Go, and tell this people:
‘Keep on (A)listening, but do not understand;
And keep on looking, but do not gain knowledge.’
10 (B)Make the hearts of this people [a](C)insensitive,
Their ears [b]dull,
And their eyes [c]blind,
(D)So that they will not see with their eyes,
Hear with their ears,
Understand with their hearts,
And return and be healed.”
