people blind and,eyes have and,deaf_[people] and,ears [belong]_to,them
Here Yahweh is speaking as if the people who cannot perceive spiritual truth were physically blind and deaf. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [a people who cannot perceive spiritual truth, even though they have eyes, and those who cannot understand it, even though they have ears]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
וְאָזְנַ֥יִם לָֽמוֹ
and,ears [belong]_to,them
Yahweh is using yet ears are to them as a common expression of the culture to mean that they have the ability to hear. If this phrase does not have that meaning for your readers, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [though they have ears] or [yet have ears to hear]
Note 3 topic: writing-pronouns
לָֽמוֹ
[belong]_to,them
The pronoun them refers to the people who are blind and deaf. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [are to those people]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
Acknowledgements: The Hebrew text, lemmas, and morphology are all thanks to the OSHB and some of the glosses are from Macula Hebrew.
