For this reason I speak to them in parables: Although they see they do not see, and although they hear they do not hear nor do they understand.

所以我用比喻对他们讲，是因他们看也看不见，听也听不见，也不明白。

我之所以用比喻对他们讲，是因为他们看却看不清，听却听不见，也不明白。

我之所以用比喻对他们讲，是因为他们看却看不清，听却听不见，也不明白。

我用比喻教导他们是因为他们视而不见，听而不闻，闻而不悟。

因此，我用比喻对他们讲话，因为他们看却看不见，听也听不到，也不明白。

我之所以用比喻对他们说，是因为他们虽然看了，却看不见；听了，却听不进，也不领悟。

所以我用比喻對他們講，是因他們看也看不見，聽也聽不見，也不明白。

我之所以用比喻對他們講，是因為他們看卻看不清，聽卻聽不見，也不明白。

我之所以用比喻對他們講，是因為他們看卻看不清，聽卻聽不見，也不明白。

我用比喻教導他們是因為他們視而不見，聽而不聞，聞而不悟。

因此，我用比喻對他們講話，因為他們看卻看不見，聽也聽不到，也不明白。

我用比喻對他們說話，是因為他們看卻看不見，聽卻聽不見，也不領悟。

我之所以用比喻對他們說，是因為他們雖然看了，卻看不見；聽了，卻聽不進，也不領悟。

故我以喻語之、因其視而不見、聽而不聞、亦不悟也、

故我設譬語之、以其視不見、聽不聞、而不悟也、

故我設喻語眾、因其視而不見、聽而不聞、亦不悟焉、

若輩視而不見、聽而不聞、冥頑不悟、故以譬喻訓之。

This is why I speak to them in parables:“ Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand.

Here is why I use stories when I speak to the people. I say,“ They look, but they don’t really see. They listen, but they don’t really hear or understand.

This is why I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.

That is why I use these parables, For they look, but they don’t really see. They hear, but they don’t really listen or understand.

That is why I speak to them in parables, because looking they do not see, and hearing they do not listen or understand.

Therefore I speak to them in parables; because while seeing they do not see, and while hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.

Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.

Therefore speak I to them in parables; because seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

For this reason I speak to them in parables, because looking they do not see, and hearing they do not listen or understand.

Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they don’t see, and hearing, they don’t hear, neither do they understand.

“ Son of man, you are living in the midst of a rebellious house. They have eyes to see, but do not see, and ears to hear, but do not hear, because they are a rebellious house.

Tell them:‘ Hear this, you foolish people who have no understanding, who have eyes but do not discern, who have ears but do not perceive:

But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled only to those who are perishing,among whom the god of this age has blinded the minds of those who do not believe so they would not see the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God.

They do not comprehend or understand, for their eyes are blind and cannot see; their minds do not discern.

Now this is the basis for judging: that the light has come into the world and people loved the darkness rather than the light, because their deeds were evil.For everyone who does evil deeds hates the light and does not come to the light, so that their deeds will not be exposed.

Jesus said,]“ For judgment I have come into this world, so that those who do not see may gain their sight, and the ones who see may become blind.”Some of the Pharisees who were with him heard this and asked him,“ We are not blind too, are we?”Jesus replied,“ If you were blind, you would not be guilty of sin, but now because you claim that you can see, your guilt remains.”

Your eyes have seen the great judgments, those signs and mighty wonders.But to this very day the LORD has not given you an understanding mind, perceptive eyes, or discerning ears!

“ Listen, you deaf ones! Take notice, you blind ones!My servant is truly blind, my messenger is truly deaf. My covenant partner, the servant of the LORD, is truly blind.You see many things, but don’t comprehend; their ears are open, but do not hear.”

“ But your eyes are blessed because they see, and your ears because they hear.

When he learned of this, Jesus said to them,“ Why are you arguing about having no bread? Do you still not see or understand? Have your hearts been hardened?Though you have eyes, don’t you see? And though you have ears, can’t you hear? Don’t you remember?
