KJV - Matthew 13:15
For this people’s heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
This means that the people's hearts have become dull, their ears can't hear well, and they've closed their eyes. This is so they won't see or hear anything and understand it with their hearts. If they did, they might change and get better, and I could heal them.
