Then you will ^(D)dwell in the land which I have given to you and to your forefathers; but you have not ^(E)inclined your ear or listened to Me.

⁴ “Do not be ^(A)like your fathers, to whom the ^(B)former prophets proclaimed, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, “^(C)Return now from your evil ways and from your evil deeds.”’ But they did ^(D)not listen or give heed to Me,” declares the Lord.
