Ezekiel 3:4-11

4And he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, goH935, get thee unto the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and speakH1696 with my wordsH1697 unto them. 5For thou art not sentH7971 to a peopleH5971 of a strange speech and of a hard languageH3956, but to the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; 6not to manyH7227 peoplesH5971 of a strange speech and of a hard languageH3956, whose wordsH1697 thou canst not understand. Surely, if I sentH7971 thee to them, they would hearken unto thee. 7But the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 will not hearken unto thee; for they will not hearken unto me: for all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 are of a hardH7186 foreheadH4696 and of a stiff heartH3820. 8Behold, I have madeH5414 thy faceH6440 hardH2389 against their facesH6440, and thy foreheadH4696 hardH2389 against their foreheadsH4696. 9As an adamant harderH2389 than flintH6864 have I madeH5414 thy foreheadH4696: fearH3372 them not, neither be dismayedH2865 at their looks, though they are a rebelliousH4805 houseH1004. 10Moreover he saidH559 unto me, SonH1121 of manH120, all my wordsH1697 that I shall speakH1696 unto thee receiveH3947 in thy heartH3824, and hearH8085 with thine earsH241. 11And goH935, get thee to them of the captivity, unto the children of thy peopleH5971, and speakH1696 unto them, and tell them, ThusH3541 saith the LordH136 Jehovah; whether they will hearH8085, or whether they will forbear.
