"But they have not listened to me, nor have they inclined their ear. Instead, they have stiffened their neck, and they have behaved worse than their fathers did. "
— Jeremiah 7:26, Catholic Public Domain Version
“Yet they hearkened not unto me, nor inclined their ear, but hardened their neck: they did worse than their fathers.”
“yet they hearkened not unto me, nor inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff: they did worse than their fathers. ”
“yet they didn't listen to me, nor inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff: they did worse than their fathers.”
“But your ancestors did not listen to me nor pay attention to me. They became obstinate and were more wicked than even their own forefathers.’””
“And they have not hearkened to me: nor inclined their ear: but have hardened their neck, and have done worse than their fathers.”
“But still they took no note and would not give ear, but they made their necks stiff, doing worse than their fathers.”
“Yet they hearkened not unto me, nor inclined their ear, but hardened their neck: they did worse than their fathers.”
But on this matter I did instruct them, saying: Listen to my voice, and I will be your God, and you will be my people. And walk in the entire way that I have commanded you, so that it may be well with you.
But they did not listen, nor did they incline their ear. Instead, they walked by their own will and in the depravity of their own wicked heart. And so, they went backward, and not forward,
from the day when their fathers went forth from the land of Egypt, even to this day. And I have sent all my servants, the prophets, to you, throughout the day, rising at first light and sending them.
But they have not listened to me, nor have they inclined their ear. Instead, they have stiffened their neck, and they have behaved worse than their fathers did.
And so, you will speak to them all these words, but they will not listen to you. And you will call to them, but they will not respond to you.
And you will say to them: This is the nation that has not listened to the voice of the Lord their God, nor accepted discipline. Faith has perished and been taken away from their mouth.
Cut off your hair, and cast it away. And take up a lamentation on high. For the Lord has cast aside and abandoned this generation of his fury.
