Possible meanings are 1) the imperatives "do not understand" and "do not perceive" express what God is causing to happen. AT: "You will listen, but Yahweh will not let you understand; you will look carefully, but Yahweh will not allow you to understand" or 2) the imperatives "Listen" and "see" express the idea of "if." AT: "Even if you listen you will not understand; even if you look carefully, you will not understand" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-imperative]])

# Listen, but do not understand; see, but do not perceive

You can state clearly the understood information. AT: "Listen to Yahweh's message, but do not understand what it means; look at what Yahweh is doing, but do not realize what it means" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-ellipsis]])
