21  “Hear this, O efoolish and senseless people,

fwho have eyes, but see not,

who have ears, but hear not.


Ezekiel 12:2

2 “Son of man, you dwell in the midst of a urebellious house, vwho have eyes to see, but see not, who have ears to hear, but hear not, for they are a rebellious house.


Isaiah 42:18–19

Israel’s Failure to Hear and See

18  Hear, you deaf,

and look, you blind, that you may see!

19  Who is blind but my servant,

or deaf as my messenger whom I send?

Who is blind as my dedicated one,1

or blind as the servant of the Lord?


Isaiah 43:8

8  Bring out the people dwho are blind, yet have eyes,

who are deaf, yet have ears!


Matthew 13:13

13 This is why I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.
