Jeremiah 11:8King James 3 - The Literal TraslationThey did not hear and did not stretch out their ear, but each man walked in the stubbornness of his evil heart. And I will bring on them all the words of this covenant which I commanded them to do, but they did not do. See the chapter |
And You testified against them to bring them back to Your Law, but they acted presumptuously, and did not listen to Your commands, but were against Your judgments; they sinned in them, which a man doing, he shall live in them. And they gave a rebellious shoulder, and hardened their neck, and would not hear.
I have also sent to you all My servants the prophets, rising up early and sending, saying, Each man now turn back from his evil way, and amend your doings, and do not go after other gods to serve them, and you shall live in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers. But you have not stretched out your ear, and not listened to Me.
But doing we will do whatever thing goes out of our own mouth, to burn incense to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings, and our rulers, in the cities of Judah and in the outside places of Jerusalem. And we were satisfied with food, and were well, and saw no evil thing.
