26 ^a“‘Go to this people, and say,
^b“You will indeed hear but never understand,
and you will indeed see but never perceive.”
27 ^cFor this people’s heart has grown dull,
and with their ears they can barely hear,
and their eyes they have closed;
lest they should see with their eyes
and hear with their ears
and understand with their heart
and ^dturn, and I would heal them.’

^feyes that would not see
and ears that would not hear,
down to this very day.”
