Jeremiah 6:19
6:19 Hear this, you peoples of the earth:
‘Take note! I am about to bring disaster on these people.
It will come as punishment for their scheming.
For they have paid no attention to what I have said,
and they have rejected my law.
Jeremiah 7:13
7:13 You also have done all these things, says the
Lord, and I have spoken to you over and over again.
But you have not listened! You have refused to respond when I called you to repent!
Jeremiah 7:24-26
7:24 But they did not listen to me or pay any attention to me. They followed the stubborn inclinations of their own wicked hearts. They acted worse and worse instead of better.
7:25 From the time your ancestors departed the land of Egypt until now,
I sent my servants the prophets to you again and again,
day after day.
7:26 But your ancestors
did not listen to me nor pay attention to me. They became obstinate
and were more wicked than even their own forefathers.’”
Jeremiah 25:3-7
25:3 “For the last twenty-three years, from the thirteenth year that Josiah son of Amon was ruling in Judah
until now, the
Lord has been speaking to me. I told you over and over again
what he said.
But you would not listen.
25:4 Over and over again
the
Lord has sent
his servants the prophets to you. But you have not listened or paid attention.
25:5 He said through them,
‘Each of you must turn from your wicked ways and stop doing the evil things you are doing.
If you do, I will allow you to continue to live here in the land that I gave to you and your ancestors as a lasting possession.
25:6 Do not pay allegiance to
other gods and worship and serve them. Do not make me angry by the things that you do.
Then I will not cause you any harm.’
25:7 So, now the
Lord says,
‘You have not listened to me. But
you have made me angry by the things that you have done.
Thus you have brought harm on yourselves.’
Jeremiah 26:5
26:5 You must pay attention to the exhortations of my servants the prophets. I have sent them to you over and over again.
But you have not paid any attention to them.
Jeremiah 32:33
32:33 They have turned away from me instead of turning to me.
I tried over and over again
to instruct them, but they did not listen and respond to correction.
Jeremiah 34:17
34:17 So I, the
Lord, say: “You have not really obeyed me and granted freedom to your neighbor and fellow countryman.
Therefore, I will grant you freedom, the freedom
to die in war, or by starvation or disease. I, the
Lord, affirm it!
I will make all the kingdoms of the earth horrified at what happens to you.
Jeremiah 35:14-16
35:14 Jonadab son of Rechab ordered his descendants not to drink wine. His orders have been carried out.
To this day his descendants have drunk no wine because they have obeyed what their ancestor commanded them. But I
have spoken to you over and over again,
but you have not obeyed me!
35:15 I sent all my servants the prophets to warn you over and over again. They said, “Every one of you, stop doing the evil things you have been doing and do what is right.
Do not pay allegiance to other gods
and worship them. Then you can continue to live in this land that I gave to you and your ancestors.” But you did not pay any attention or listen to me.
35:16 Yes,
the descendants of Jonadab son of Rechab have carried out the orders that their ancestor gave them. But you people
have not obeyed me!
Jeremiah 44:4-5
44:4 I sent my servants the prophets to you people over and over
again warning you not to do this disgusting thing I hate.
44:5 But the people of Jerusalem and Judah
would not listen or pay any attention. They would not stop the wickedness they were doing nor quit sacrificing to other gods.
Zechariah 1:4-6
1:4 “Do not be like your ancestors, to whom the former prophets called out, saying, ‘The
Lord who rules over all says, “Turn now from your evil wickedness,”’ but they would by no means obey me,” says the
Lord.
1:5 “As for your ancestors, where are they? And did the prophets live forever?
1:6 But have my words and statutes, which I commanded my servants the prophets, not outlived your fathers?
Then they paid attention
and confessed, ‘The
Lord who rules over all has indeed done what he said he would do to us, because of our sinful ways.’”
Zechariah 7:11-13
7:11 “But they refused to pay attention, turning away stubbornly and stopping their ears so they could not hear.
7:12 Indeed, they made their heart as hard as diamond, so that they could not obey the Torah and the other words the Lord who rules over all had sent by his Spirit through the former prophets. Therefore, the Lord who rules over all had poured out great wrath.
7:13 “‘It then came about that just as I cried out, but they would not obey, so they will cry out, but I will not listen,’ the Lord Lord who rules over all had said.
Hebrews 12:25
12:25 Take care not to refuse the one who is speaking! For if they did not escape when they refused the one who warned them on earth, how much less shall we, if we reject the one who warns from heaven?
