Mark 4:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 And he said unto them, To you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are [a]without, all things be done in parables,
12 (A)That they seeing, may see, and not discern: and they hearing, may hear, and not understand, lest at any time they should turn, and their sins should be forgiven them.
13 Again he said unto them, Perceive ye not this parable? how then should ye understand all other parables?

“‘they may be ever seeing but never perceiving,
and ever hearing but never understanding;
otherwise they might turn and be forgiven!’[a]”(C)
