⁵ Let not your horn be lifted up: let no more words of pride come from your outstretched necks.

⁹ And the Lord said to Moses, I have been watching this people, and I see that they are a stiff-necked people.

²⁷ For I have knowledge of your hard and uncontrolled hearts: even now, while I am still living, you will not be ruled by the Lord; how much less after my death?

⁸ Now do not be hard-hearted, as your fathers were; but give yourselves to the Lord, and come into his holy place, which he has made his for ever, and be the servants of the Lord your God, so that the heat of his wrath may be turned away from you.

⁴ Because I saw that your heart was hard, and that your neck was an iron cord, and your brow brass;

⁴ And the children are hard and stiff-hearted; I am sending you to them: and you are to say to them, These are the words of the Lord.

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.
