15 I have also sent to you all My aservants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, b‘Turn now everyone from his evil way, amend your doings, and do not go after other gods to serve them; then you will cdwell in the land which I have given you and your fathers.’ But you have not inclined your ear, nor obeyed Me.
