- "And the LORDª Godª of their fathersª sentªº to¹ them byª his messengers,ª rising up betimes,ªº and sending;ªº because¹ he had compassionªº on¹ his people,ª and on¹ his dwelling place:ª ... But they mockedªº¹ the messengersª of God,ª and despisedªº his words,ª and misusedªº his prophets,ª until¹ the wrathª of the LORDª aroseªº against his people,ª till¹ [there was] no¹ remedy.ª" {2Ch 36:15-16} + "Hear,ªº O my people,ª and I will testifyªº unto thee: O Israel,ª if¹ thou wilt hearkenªº unto me; ... But my peopleª would not¹ hearkenªº to my voice;ª and Israelª wouldªº none¹ of me." {Psa 81:8-11} + "Thus¹ saithªº the LORD,ª Standªº ye in¹ the ways,ª and see,ªº and askªº for the oldª paths,ª where¹¹ [is] the goodª way,ª and walk²º¹ therein, and ye shall findªº restª for your souls.ª But they said,ªº We will not¹ walk²º¹ [therein]. ... Also I setªº watchmenªº over¹ you, [saying], Hearkenªº to the soundª of the trumpet.ª But they said,ªº We will not¹ hearken.ªº" {Jer 6:16-17} + "For¹ I earnestly²º protestedªº unto your fathersª in the dayª [that] I brought them upªº¹ out of the landª¹ of Egypt,ª [even] unto¹ this¹ day,ª rising earlyªº and protesting,ªº saying,ªº Obeyªº my voice.ª ... Yet they obeyedªº not,¹ nor¹ inclinedªº¹ their ear,ª but walked²º¹ every oneª in the imaginationª of their evilª heart:ª therefore I will bringªº upon¹ them¹ all¹ the wordsª of this¹ covenant,ª which¹ I commandedªº [them] to do;ªº but they didªº [them] not.¹" {Jer 11:7-8} + "From¹ the thirteenthªª yearª of Josiahª the sonª of Amonª kingª of Judah,ª even unto¹ this¹ day,ª that¹ [is] the threeª and twentiethª year,ª the wordª of the LORDª hath come¹ unto¹ me, and I have spokenªº unto¹ you, rising earlyªº and speaking;ªº but ye have not¹ hearkened.ªº ... Yet ye have not¹ hearkenedªº unto¹ me, saithªº the LORD;ª that¹ ye might provoke me to angerªº with the worksª of your handsª to your own hurt.ª" {Jer 25:3-7} + "I have sentªº also unto¹ you¹ all¹ my servantsª the prophets,ª rising up earlyªº and sendingªº [them], saying,ªº Returnªº ye now¹ every manª from his evilª way,ª¹ and amendªº your doings,ª and go²º¹ not¹ afterª otherª godsª to serveªº them, and ye shall dwell¹ in²º¹ the landª which¹ I have givenªº to you and to your fathers:ª but ye have not¹ inclinedªº¹ your ear,ª nor¹ hearkenedªº unto¹ me." {Jer 35:15} + "And saidªº unto¹ them, Thus¹ saithªº the LORD,ª the Godª of Israel,ª unto¹ whom¹ ye sentªº me to presentªº your supplicationª beforeª him; ... But if¹ ye¹ say,ªº We will not¹ dwellªº in this¹ land,ª neither¹ obeyªº the voiceª of the LORDª your God,ª" {Jer 42:9-13} + "Howbeit I sentªº unto¹ you¹ all¹ my servantsª the prophets,ª rising earlyªº and sendingªº [them], saying,ªº Oh,¹ doªº not¹¹ this¹ abominableª thingª that¹ I hate.ªº" {Jer 44:4} + "Be¹ ye not¹ as your fathers,ª unto¹ whom¹ the formerª prophetsª have cried,ªº saying,ªº Thus¹ saithªº the LORDª of hosts;ª Turnªº ye now¹ from your evilª ways,ª¹ and [from] your evilª doings:ª but they did not¹ hear,ªº nor¹ hearkenªº unto¹ me, saithªº the LORD.ª" {Zch 1:4}
