Matthew 13:10-15

10And the disciplesG3101 cameG4334 and saidG3004 to Him, “WhyG1223 G5101 do You speakG2980 to them in parablesG3850?” 11 1Jesus answeredG611 them, “2To you it has been grantedG1325 to knowG1097 the mysteriesG3466 of the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772, but to them it has not been grantedG1325. 12 3For whoeverG3748 hasG2192, to him more shall be givenG1325, and he will haveG4052 an abundanceG4052; but whoeverG3748 does not haveG2192, evenG2532 whatG3739 he hasG2192 shall be takenG142 awayG142 from him. 13ThereforeG1223 G3778 I speakG2980 to them in parablesG3850; becauseG3754 while 4seeingG991 they do not seeG991, and while hearingG191 they do not hearG191, norG3761 do they understandG4920. 14 5In their case the prophecyG4394 of IsaiahG2268 is being fulfilledG378, which saysG3004, ‘6 7You will keepG189 on hearingG191, 8but will not understandG4920; 9You will keepG991 on seeingG991, but will not perceiveG3708;15 10For the heartG2588 of thisG3778 peopleG2992 has becomeG3975 dullG3975, With their earsG3775 they scarcelyG917 hearG191, And they have closedG2576 their eyesG3788, OtherwiseG3379 they would seeG3708 with their eyesG3788, HearG191 with their earsG3775, And understandG4920 with their heartG2588 and returnG1994, And I would healG2390 them.’
