* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.
For this people’s heart has grown callous; 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.’
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For this people’s heart has grown callous. Their ears are dull of hearing. Their eyes they have closed. Lest they should see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and would turn again, and I would heal them.’
World English Bible (WEB)
For{G1063} the heart{G2588} of this{G5127} people{G2992} is waxed gross{G3975}{(G5681)}, and{G2532} their ears{G3775} are dull{G917} of hearing{G191}{(G5656)}, and{G2532} their{G846} eyes{G3788} have they closed{G2576}{(G5656)}; lest{G3379} they should see{G1492}{(G5632)} with their eyes{G3788}, and{G2532} hear{G191}{(G5661)} with their ears{G3775}, and{G2532} understand{G4920}{(G5632)} with their heart{G2588}, and{G2532} should be converted{G1994}{(G5661)}, and{G2532} I should heal{G2390}{(G5667)} them{G846}.
Strong's King James
(27) For the heart of this people is made dull,
Their ears with difficulty hear,
They have closed their eyes,
Lest maybe their eyes see,
And their ears hear,
Their hearts understanding to return,
And I would heal them.'
The F.O.G*
[27] For this people's hearts have grown callused; their ears barely hear, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise, they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn to Me for healing.'"
The F.O.G Paraphrase
for made gross was the heart of this people, and with the ears they heard heavily, and their eyes they did close, lest they may see with the eyes, and with the heart may understand, and be turned back, and I may heal them.
