← Matthew

---

• A. 13 Therefore speak I to them in parables:

• B. because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

• C. 14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith,

• D. By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand;

• E. 15 and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:

• F. For this people's heart is waxed gross,

• G. and their ears are dull of hearing,

• H. and their eyes they have closed;

• H'. lest at any time they should see with their eyes,

• G'. and hear with their ears,

• F'. and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

• E'. 16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see:

• D'. and your ears, for they hear.

• C'. 17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired

• B'. to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.

• A'. 18 Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.
