I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;
Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not.
I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.
And now, because ye have done all these works, saith the LORD, and I spake unto you, rising up early and speaking, but ye heard not; and I called you, but ye answered not;
But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear.
But to Israel he saith, All day long I have stretched forth my hands unto a disobedient and gainsaying people.
