Verse 3

O LORD{H3068}, are not thine eyes{H5869} upon the truth{H530}? thou hast stricken{H5221}{(H8689)} them, but they have not grieved{H2342}{(H8804)}; thou hast consumed{H3615}{(H8765)} them, but they have refused{H3985}{(H8765)} to receive{H3947}{(H8800)} correction{H4148}: they have made their faces{H6440} harder{H2388}{(H8765)} than a rock{H5553}; they have refused{H3985}{(H8765)} to return{H7725}{(H8800)}.
