Jeremiah 7:24
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Yet they did not listen or incline their ear, but they followed the stubborn inclinations of their own evil hearts. They went backward and not forward.
In context
22 For when I brought your fathers out of the land of Egypt, I did not merely command them about burnt offerings and sacrifices,
23 but this is what I commanded them: Obey Me, and I will be your God, and you will be My people. You must walk in all the ways I have commanded you, so that it may go well with you.
24 Yet they did not listen or incline their ear, but they followed the stubborn inclinations of their own evil hearts. They went backward and not forward.
25 From the day your fathers came out of the land of Egypt until this day, I have sent you all My servants the prophets again and again.
26 Yet they would not listen to Me or incline their ear, but they stiffened their necks and did more evil than their fathers.
