Compare all
7 But the house of Israel will not listen to you, abecause they will not listen to Me; bfor all the house of Israel are1 impudent and hard-hearted.  
8 Behold, I have made your face strong against their faces, and your forehead strong against their foreheads.
9 aLike adamant stone, harder than flint, I have made your forehead; bdo not be afraid of them, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.”  
10 Moreover He said to me: “Son of man, receive into your heart all My words that I speak to you, and hear with your ears.
11 And go, get to the captives, to the children of your people, and speak to them and tell them, a‘Thus says the Lord God,’ whether they hear, or whether they refuse.”  
12 Then athe Spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me a great thunderous voice: “Blessed is the bglory of the Lord from His place!”  
13 I also heard the anoise of the wings of the living creatures that touched one another, and the noise of the wheels beside them, and a great thunderous noise.
