(A)‘Go to this people and say:
“Hearing you will hear, and shall not understand;
And seeing you will see, and not perceive;

Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears,
Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn,
So that I should heal them.” ’

    and they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
    hear with their ears,
    understand with their hearts
and turn, and I would heal them.’[a](B)

28 “Therefore I want you to know that God’s salvation(C) has been sent to the Gentiles,(D) and they will listen!”
