Exegesis
The final future middle iasomai {ἰάσομαι | iásomai} “I will heal” stands in stark contrast to their resistance, underlining that healing is assured if they respond. The English renditions preserve the repeated “and” to reflect the cumulative Greek coordination and to show how each missed step results in the withheld experience of healing.
In context — Acts 28:27
For the heart of this people has become dull, and with their ears they have heard with difficulty, and they have closed their eyes ; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn, and I would heal them.
