Jeremiah 7:24-28

24But they hearkenedH8085 not, nor inclinedH5186 their earH241, but walkedH3212 in the counselsH4156 and in the imaginationH8307 of their evilH7451 heartH3820, and went backwardH268, and not forwardH6440.12

25Since the dayH3117 that your fathersH1 came forth outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 unto this dayH3117 I have even sentH7971 unto you all my servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, dailyH3117 rising up earlyH7925 and sendingH7971 them:

26Yet they hearkenedH8085 not unto me, nor inclinedH5186 their earH241, but hardenedH7185 their neckH6203: they did worseH7489 than their fathersH1.

27Therefore thou shalt speakH1696 all these wordsH1697 unto them; but they will not hearkenH8085 to thee: thou shalt also callH7121 unto them; but they will not answerH6030 thee.

28But thou shalt sayH559 unto them, This is a nationH1471 that obeyethH8085 not the voiceH6963 of YhwhH3068 their GodH430, nor receivethH3947 correctionH4148: truthH530 is perishedH6, and is cut offH3772 from their mouthH6310.3
