Matthew 13:10-15

Diaglott(i) 10 And coming the disciples said to him: Why in parables speakest thou to them? 11 He and answering said to the: Because to you it is given to know the secrets of the kingdom of the heavens; to them but not it is given. 12 Whoever for has, it shall be given to him, and he will be gifted with abundance; Whoever but not has, even what he has, shall be taken from him. 13 Therefore this in parables to them I speak, for seeing not they see, and hearing not they hear, neither do they understand. 14 And is fulfilled to them the prophecy of Esaias, that saying: By hearing you shall hear, and not not may you understand; and seeing you will see, and not not you may see. 15 Has grown fat for the heart of the people this, and with the ears heavily they hear, and the eyes of them they shut, lest they should see with the eyes, and with the ears they should hear, and with the heart should understand, and they should turn, and I should heal them.
