³⁰ For this cause say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: Are you making yourselves unclean as your fathers did? are you being untrue to me by going after their disgusting works?

¹² And you have done worse evil than your fathers; for see, every one of you is guided by the pride of his evil heart, so as not to give ear to me:

¹⁹ But whenever the judge was dead, they went back and did more evil than their fathers, going after other gods, to be their servants and their worshippers; giving up nothing of their sins and their hard-hearted ways.

²⁶ But still they took no note and would not give ear, but they made their necks stiff, doing worse than their fathers.

¹⁴ And now you have come to take the place of your fathers, another generation of sinners, increasing the wrath of the Lord against Israel.

¹⁴ But they have been walking in the pride of their hearts, going after the Baals, as their fathers gave them teaching.

³² Make full, then, the measure of your fathers.

⁵¹ You whose hearts are hard and whose ears are shut to me; you are ever working against the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you.
