Ezekiel 3:6-8

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁶ Not to many peoples of foreign speech and of a hard language, whose words you cannot understand. Surely, had I sent you to such people, they would have listened to you and heeded My words.

⁷ But the house of Israel will not listen to you and obey you since they will not listen to Me and obey Me, for all the house of Israel are impudent and stubborn of heart.

⁸ Behold, I have made your face strong and hard against their faces and your forehead strong and hard against their foreheads.
