You must speak my words to them whether they listen or not, for they are rebellious.

And as for them, whether they listen or not – for they are a rebellious house – they will know that a prophet has been among them.

Go to the exiles, to your fellow countrymen, and speak to them – say to them, ‘This is what the sovereign Lord says,’ whether they pay attention or not.”

But when I speak with you, I will loosen your tongue and you must say to them, ‘This is what the sovereign Lord says.’ Those who listen will listen, but the indifferent will refuse, for they are a rebellious house.
