Ezekiel 3:6-8

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

Surely, if I sent you to them, they would listen to you.^{(A) 7} But the house of Israel will not be willing to listen to you, for they are not willing to listen to me, because all the house of Israel have a hard forehead and a stubborn heart.^{(B) 8} See, I have made your face hard against their faces and your forehead hard against their foreheads.
