Ezekiel 3:5-7

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁵ For you are not sent to a people of a foreign speech and of a difficult language but to the house of Israel;

⁶ Not to many peoples of foreign speech and of a hard language, whose words you cannot understand. Surely, had I sent you to such people, they would have listened to you and heeded My words.

⁷ But the house of Israel will not listen to you and obey you since they will not listen to Me and obey Me, for all the house of Israel are impudent and stubborn of heart.
