  • 2 Kgs 17:13-23 : 13 Yet the LORD testified against Israel and against Judah, by all the prophets and by all the seers, saying, Turn from your evil ways, and keep my commandments and my statutes, according to all the law which I commanded your fathers, and which I sent to you by my servants the prophets. 14 Nevertheless they would not listen, but stiffened their necks, like their fathers, who did not believe in the LORD their God. 15 They rejected his statutes and his covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified against them; they followed worthless idols, and became worthless themselves, and went after the nations that were around them, although the LORD had commanded them not to do like them. 16 They left all the commandments of the LORD their God, made for themselves cast images, even two calves, made a grove, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal. 17 They caused their sons and daughters to pass through the fire, practiced divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger. 18 Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel and removed them from his sight; there was none left but the tribe of Judah only. 19 Also Judah did not keep the commandments of the LORD their God, but walked in the statutes of Israel which they had made. 20 So the LORD rejected all the descendants of Israel, afflicted them, and gave them into the hand of plunderers, until he had cast them out of his sight. 21 For he ripped Israel from the house of David; they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king, and Jeroboam drove Israel from following the LORD, and made them commit a great sin. 22 The children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they did not depart from them, 23 until the LORD removed Israel out of his sight, as he had said by all his servants the prophets. So Israel was carried away from their own land to Assyria, as it is to this day.
  • 2 Chr 36:15-16 : 15 And the LORD God of their fathers sent warnings to them by his messengers, rising up early and sending them, because he had compassion on his people and on his dwelling place. 16 But they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and misused his prophets, until the wrath of the LORD arose against his people, until there was no remedy.

And they shrugged their shoulders, stiffened their necks, and would not hear. 30 Yet for many years You had patience with them and testified against them by Your Spirit in Your prophets. Yet they would not give ear; therefore, You gave them into the hand of the peoples of the lands.
  • Song 8:11-12 : 11 Solomon had a vineyard at Baalhamon; he let out the vineyard to keepers; each one was to bring a thousand pieces of silver for its fruit. 12 My vineyard, which is mine, is before me: you, O Solomon, must have a thousand, and those that keep its fruit two hundred.

  • Jer 35:15 : 15 I have sent also to you all my servants the prophets, rising up early and sending them, saying, Return now every man from his evil way, and amend your doings, and do not go after other gods to serve them, and you shall dwell in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers: but you have not inclined your ear, nor listened to me.
  • Zech 1:3-6 : 3 Therefore say to them, Thus says the LORD of hosts: Turn to Me, says the LORD of hosts, and I will turn to you, says the LORD of hosts. 4 Do not be like your fathers, to whom the former prophets proclaimed, saying, Thus says the LORD of hosts: Turn now from your evil ways and from your evil deeds. But they did not hear nor listen to Me, says the LORD. 5 Your fathers, where are they? And the prophets, do they live forever? 6 But My words and My statutes, which I commanded My servants the prophets, did they not overtake your fathers? Then they returned and said: Just as the LORD of hosts determined to do to us, according to our ways and according to our deeds, so He has dealt with us.
  • Zech 7:9-9 : 9 Thus says the LORD of hosts, saying, Execute true judgment, and show mercy and compassion every man to his brother: 10 And do not oppress the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you plot evil against his brother in your heart. 11 But they refused to heed, and shrugged their shoulders, and stopped their ears, so they should not hear. 12 Yes, they made their hearts like an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the LORD of hosts sent in His Spirit by the former prophets: therefore, great wrath came from the LORD of hosts. 13 Therefore it has come to pass, that just as He called and they would not hear, so they called, and I would not hear, says the LORD of hosts:

I will send my beloved son: it may be they will respect him when they see him. 14 But when the tenant farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours. 15 So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him.
