7 “Remember: Do not forget how you have provoked Jehovah your God in the wilderness.+ From the day that you went out of the land of Egypt until YOUR coming to this place YOU people have proved rebellious in YOUR behavior with Jehovah.+
16 “And they themselves, even our forefathers, acted presumptuously+ and proceeded to harden their neck,+ and they did not listen to your commandments.
25 We lie down in our shame,+ and our humiliation keeps covering us;+ for it is toward Jehovah our God that we have sinned,+ we and our fathers from our youth on and down to this day,+ and we have not obeyed the voice of Jehovah our God.”+
24 But they did not listen, neither did they incline their ear,+ but they went walking in the counsels in the stubbornness of their bad heart,+ so that they became backward in direction and not forward,+
