2 “I have spread out my hands all day long to a stubborn+ people, those who are walking in the way that is not good,+ after their thoughts;+

17 In that time they will call Jerusalem the throne of Jehovah;+ and to her all the nations must be brought together+ to the name of Jehovah at Jerusalem,+ and they will no more walk after the stubbornness of their bad heart.”+

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,+

14 but they kept on walking after the stubbornness of their heart+ and after the Baʹal images,*+ about which their fathers had taught them;+

12 And their heart+ they set as an emery stone to keep from obeying the law+ and the words that Jehovah of armies sent by his spirit,+ by means of the former prophets;+ so that there occurred great indignation on the part of Jehovah of armies.”+

21 But as respects Israel he says: “All day long I have spread out my hands toward a people that is disobedient+ and talks back.”+
