"“But they refused to pay attention, turning away stubbornly and stopping their ears so they could not hear."

“But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear.”
“But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they might not hear. ”
“But they refused to listen, and turned their backs, and stopped their ears, that they might not hear.”
“But they would not hearken, and they turned away the shoulder to depart: and they stopped their ears, not to hear.”
“But they would not give attention, turning their backs and stopping their ears from hearing;”
“But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear.”
Again the LORD’s message came to Zechariah:
“The LORD of Heaven’s Armies said,‘Exercise true judgment and show brotherhood and compassion to each other.
You must not oppress the widow, the orphan, the resident foreigner, or the poor, nor should anyone secretly plot evil against his fellow citizen.’
“But they refused to pay attention, turning away stubbornly and stopping their ears so they could not hear.
Indeed, they made their hearts as hard as diamond, so that they could not obey the Torah and the other words the LORD of Heaven’s Armies had sent by his Spirit through the former prophets. Therefore, the LORD of Heaven’s Armies had poured out great wrath.
“‘It then came about that just as I cried out, but they would not obey, so they will cry out, but I will not listen,’ the LORD of Heaven’s Armies had said.
‘Rather, I will sweep them away in a storm into all the nations they are not familiar with.’ Thus the land had become desolate because of them, with no one crossing through or returning, for they had made the fruitful land a waste.”
