Verse in context — Matthew 13
‹And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:›
‹For this people's heart is waxed gross, and› [their] ‹ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with› [their] ‹eyes, and hear with› [their] ‹ears, and should understand with› [their] ‹heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.›
‹But blessed› [are] ‹your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.›
‹For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous› [men] ‹have desired to see› [those things] ‹which ye see, and have not seen› [them]; ‹and to hear› [those things] ‹which ye hear, and have not heard› [them].
‹Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.›
