That I have not done in (A)it?
Why then, when I expected it to bring forth good grapes,
Did it bring forth wild grapes?

Micah 6:3-4
New King James Version

And how have I (B)wearied you?
Testify against Me.

I redeemed you from the house of bondage;
And I sent before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
Acts 7:51-60
New King James Version
Israel Resists the Holy Spirit
51 “You (A)stiff-necked[a] and (B)uncircumcised in heart and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you. 52 (C)Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? And they killed those who foretold the coming of (D)the Just One, of whom you now have become the betrayers and murderers, 53 (E)who have received the law by the direction of angels and have not kept it.”
Stephen the Martyr
54 (F)When they heard these things they were [b]cut to the heart, and they gnashed at him with their teeth. 55 But he, (G)being full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the (H)glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God, 56 and said, “Look! (I)I see the heavens opened and the (J)Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!”
57 Then they cried out with a loud voice, stopped their ears, and ran at him with one accord; 58 and they cast him out of the city and stoned him. And (K)the witnesses laid down their clothes at the feet of a young man named Saul. 59 And they stoned Stephen as he was calling on God and saying, “Lord Jesus, (L)receive my spirit.” 60 Then he knelt down and cried out with a loud voice, (M)“Lord, do not charge them with this sin.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep.

Because the Lord has rejected them.”

Have I been a wilderness to Israel,
Or a land of darkness?
