Make the hearts of this people calloused; deafen their ears and close their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn and be healed.”

‘Go to this people and say, “You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.”
