Matthew 13:14-16
New American Standard Bible 1995
14 [a]In their case the prophecy of Isaiah is being fulfilled, which says,
‘[b](A)You will keep on hearing, [c]but will not understand;
[d]You will keep on seeing, but will 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 would see with their eyes,
Hear with their ears,
And understand with their heart and return,
And I would heal them.’
16 (C)But blessed are your eyes, because they see; and your ears, because they hear.

Matthew 13:14-16
New International Version
14 In them is fulfilled(A) the prophecy of Isaiah:
“‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding;
you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.
15 For this people’s heart has become calloused;
they hardly hear with their ears,
and they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their hearts
and turn, and I would heal them.’[a](B)
16 But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.(C)
