Matthew 13:10-15

10ThenG2532 theG3588 disciplesG3101 came toG4334 Jesus and askedG2036, “WhyG1223G5101 do You speakG2980 toG846 the people inG1722 parablesG3850?”

11

He repliedG611G2036G846, “The knowledgeG1097 of theG3588 mysteriesG3466 of theG3588 kingdomG932 ofG3588 heavenG3772 has been givenG1325 to youG4771, butG1161 notG3756 to themG1565. 12WhoeverG3748 hasG2192 will be givenG1325 more, andG2532 he will have an abundanceG4052. WhoeverG3748 does notG3756 haveG2192, evenG2532 whatG3739 he hasG2192 will be taken awayG142 fromG575 himG846. 13ThisG3778 is whyG1223 I speakG2980 to themG846 inG1722 parablesG3850:

‘ThoughG3754 seeingG991, they do not seeG3756G991;though hearingG191, they do not hearG3756G191 or understandG4920.’1

14

In themG846 theG3588 prophecyG4394 of IsaiahG2268 is fulfilledG378:

‘You will be ever hearingG191G189 butG2532 neverG3756G3361 understandingG4920;you will be ever seeingG991 butG2532 neverG3756G3361 perceivingG3708.15ForG1063 thisG3778 people’sG2992 heartG2588 has grown callousG3975;they hardly hearG191G917 withG3588 their earsG3775,andG2532 they have closedG2576 theirG846 eyesG3788.OtherwiseG3361G4219 they might seeG3708 withG3588 their eyesG3788,hearG191 withG3588 their earsG3775,understandG4920 withG3588 their heartsG2588,andG2532 turnG1994, andG2532 I would healG2390 themG846.’2
