CKJV_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

10 G2532 And G3101 the disciples G4334 came, G2036 and said G1223 to him, G5101 Why G2980 speak you G846 to them G1722 in G3850 parables?

11 G611 He answered G2036 and said G846 to them, G3754 Because G1325 it is given G5213 to you G1097 to know G3466 the mysteries G932 of the kingdom G3772 of heaven, G1161 but G1565 to them G1325 it is G3756 not G1325 given.

12 G1063 For G3748 whoever G2192 has, G846 to him G1325 shall be given, G2532 and G4052 he shall have more abundance: G1161 but G3748 whoever G2192 has G3756 not, G575 from G846 him G142 shall be taken away G2532 even G3739 that G2192 he has.

13 G5124 Therefore G2980 speak I G846 to them G1722 in G3850 parables: G3754 because G991 they G991 seeing G991 see G3756 not; G2532 and G191 hearing G191 they hear G3756 not, G3761 neither G4920 do they understand.

14 G2532 And G1909 in G846 them G378 is fulfilled G4394 the prophecy G2268 of Isaiah, G3004 which says, G189 By hearing G191 you shall hear, G2532 and G4920 shall G3756 G3361 not G4920 understand; G2532 and G991 seeing G991 you shall see, G2532 and G1492 shall G3756 G3361 not G1492 perceive:

15 G1063 For G5127 this G2992 people's G2588 heart G3975 is grown fat, G2532 and G3775 their ears G917 are dull of G191 hearing, G2532 and G846 their G3788 eyes G2576 they have closed; G3379 lest at any time G1492 they should see G3788 with G3788 their eyes, G2532 and G191 hear G3775 with G3775 their ears, G2532 and G4920 should understand G2588 with G2588 their heart, G2532 and G1994 should be converted, G2532 and G2390 I should heal G846 them.

16 G1161 But G3107 blessed G5216 are your G3788 eyes, G3754 for G991 they see: G2532 and G5216 your G3775 ears, G3754 for G191 they hear.

17 G1063 For G281 truly G3004 I say G5213 to you, G3754 That G4183 many G4396 prophets G2532 and G1342 righteous G1937 men have desired G1492 to see G3739 those things which G991 you see, G2532 and G1492 have G3756 not G1492 seen G2532 them; and G191 to hear G3739 those things which G191 you hear, G2532 and G191 have G3756 not G191 heard them.
