Matthew 13:12-15

12For whoever has, more will be given to him, and he will have more than enough; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.

13That is why I speak to them in parables, because looking they do not see, and hearing they do not listen or understand.

14Isaiah’s prophecy is fulfilled in them, which says: You will listen and listen, but never understand; you will look and look, but never perceive.

15For this people’s heart has grown callous; their ears are hard of hearing, and they have shut their eyes; otherwise they might see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and turn back — and I would heal them.
