"But my people hearkened not to my voice; And Israel would none of me. "
— Psalms 81:11, American Standard Version
“But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me.”
“But my people didn't listen to my voice. Israel desired none of me.”
“But my people did not obey me; Israel did not submit to me.”
“But my people did not give ear to my voice; Israel would have nothing to do with me.”
“But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me.”
Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wouldest hearken unto me!
There shall no strange god be in thee; Neither shalt thou worship any foreign god.
I am Jehovah thy God, Who brought thee up out of the land of Egypt: Open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
But my people hearkened not to my voice; And Israel would none of me.
So I let them go after the stubbornness of their heart, That they might walk in their own counsels.
Oh that my people would hearken unto me, That Israel would walk in my ways!
I would soon subdue their enemies, And turn my hand against their adversaries.
