Ezekiel 3:8 BBE

⁶  Not to a number of peoples whose talk is strange and whose language is hard and whose words are not clear to you. Truly, if I sent you to them they would give ear to you.

⁷  But the children of Israel will not give ear to you; for they have no mind to give ear to me: for all the children of Israel have a hard brow and a stiff heart.

⁸  See, I have made your face hard against their faces, and your brow hard against their brows.

⁹  Like a diamond harder than rock I have made your brow: have no fear of them and do not be overcome by their looks, for they are an uncontrolled people.

¹⁰  Then he said to me, Son of man, take into your heart all my words which I am about to say to you, and let your ears be open to them.
