Saying, ‘Go to this people and say, “In hearing you shall hear, and in no way understand; and in seeing you shall see, but in no way perceive.
For the heart of this people has grown fat, and their ears are dull of hearing, and they have closed their eyes; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and should be converted, and I should heal them.” ’
