Listen, my people, to my teaching, and pay attention to what I say.
The Almighty God, the Lord, speaks; he calls to the whole earth from east to west.
“Listen, my people, and I will speak; I will testify against you, Israel. I am God, your God.
I have sinned against you—only against you— and done what you consider evil. So you are right in judging me; you are justified in condemning me.
Why have you abandoned us like this, O God? Will you be angry with your own people forever?
Listen, and I will teach you what the wise have said. Study their teachings,
“Listen to me, my people, listen to what I say: I give my teaching to the nations; my laws will bring them light.
“Listen now, my people, and come to me; come to me, and you will have life! I will make a lasting covenant with you and give you the blessings I promised to David.
And Jesus concluded, “Listen, then, if you have ears!”
Listen, you kings! Pay attention, you rulers! I will sing and play music to Israel's God, the Lord.
