Ezekiel 3:5-7

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁵ For thou art not sent to a people of a profound speech, and of an unknown tongue, but to the house of Israel:

⁶ Nor to many nations of a strange speech, and of an unknown tongue, whose words thou canst not understand: and if thou wert sent to them, they would hearken to thee.

⁷ But the house of Israel will not hearken to thee: because they will not hearken to me: for all the house of Israel are of a hard forehead and an obstinate heart.
