Matthew 13:13-15

13This is why I speak to them this way. They see, but they’re blind. They hear, but they don’t listen. They don’t even try to understand.

14So they make Isaiah’s prophecy come true: ‘You will hear clearly but never understand. You will see clearly but never comprehend.

15These people have become close-minded and hard of hearing. They have shut their eyes so that their eyes never see. Their ears never hear. Their minds never understand. And they never return to me for healing!’
