New King James Version
29 And [a]testified against them,
That You might bring them back to Your law.
Yet they acted [b]proudly,
And did not heed Your commandments,
But sinned against Your judgments,
(A)‘Which if a man does, he shall live by them.’
And they shrugged their shoulders,
[c]Stiffened their necks,
And would not hear.
30 Yet for many years You had patience with them,
And [d]testified (B)against them by Your Spirit (C)in Your prophets.
Yet they would not listen;
(D)Therefore You gave them into the hand of the peoples of the lands.
