23 But this is what I commanded them, saying, a‘Obey My voice, and bI will be your God, and you shall be My people. And walk in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well with you.’  
24 aYet they did not obey or incline their ear, but bfollowed the counsels and the dictates of their evil hearts, and cwent backward and not forward.  
25 Since the day that your fathers came out of the land of Egypt until this day, I have even asent to you all My servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them.  
26 aYet they did not obey Me or incline their ear, but bstiffened their neck. cThey did worse than their fathers.
