²⁵ Ever since the day your fathers left Egypt until now, I have kept on sending them my prophets, day after day. ²⁶ But they wouldn’t listen to them or even try to hear. They are hard and stubborn and rebellious—worse even than their fathers were.

²⁷ Tell them everything that I will do to them, but don’t expect them to listen. Cry out your warnings, but don’t expect them to respond.
