Living Bible
26 ‘Say to the Jews, “You will hear and see but not understand, 27 for your hearts are too fat and your ears don’t listen and you have closed your eyes against understanding, for you don’t want to see and hear and understand and turn to me to heal you.”’[a]
28-29 [b]So I want you to realize that this salvation from God is available to the Gentiles too, and they will accept it.”

Acts 28:26-28
New International Version
26 “‘Go to this people and say,
“You will be ever hearing but never understanding;
you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.”
27 For this people’s heart has become calloused;(A)
they hardly hear with their ears,
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!”
