17 Therefore say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: (A)I will gather you from the peoples and assemble you out of the countries where you have been scattered, (B)and I will give you the land of Israel.’ 18 And when they come there, (C)they will remove from it all its (D)detestable things and all its abominations. 19 (E)And I will give them one heart, and (F)a new spirit I will put within them. (G)I will remove the heart of stone from their flesh (H)and give them a heart of flesh, 20 (I)that they may walk in my statutes and keep my rules and obey them. (J)And they shall be my people, and I will be their God.

11 But (A)they refused to pay attention (B)and turned a stubborn shoulder and stopped their ears that they might not hear.[a] 12 (C)They made their hearts diamond-hard (D)lest they should hear the law and the words that the Lord of hosts had sent (E)by his Spirit through (F)the former prophets. (G)Therefore great anger came from the Lord of hosts. 13 (H)“As I[b] called, and they would not hear, (I)so they called, and I would not hear,” says the Lord of hosts, 14 (J)“and I scattered them with a whirlwind among all (K)the nations that they had not known. (L)Thus the land they left was desolate, (M)so that no one went to and fro, (N)and the pleasant land was made desolate.”

  2. Zechariah 7:13 Hebrew he

11 But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear.

12 Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the Lord of hosts hath sent in his spirit by the former prophets: therefore came a great wrath from the Lord of hosts.

13 Therefore it is come to pass, that as he cried, and they would not hear; so they cried, and I would not hear, saith the Lord of hosts:

14 But I scattered them with a whirlwind among all the nations whom they knew not. Thus the land was desolate after them, that no man passed through nor returned: for they laid the pleasant land desolate.
