Psalms 81:10-12

10 aI am the Lord your God,
who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.
bOpen your mouth wide, and I will fill it.
11 “But my people did not listen to my voice;
Israel cwould not submit to me.
12So I dgave them over to their estubborn hearts,
to follow their own fcounsels.

Proverbs 1:24-32

24 gBecause I have called and hyou refused to listen,
have istretched out my hand and no one has heeded,
25because you have jignored all my counsel
and kwould have none of my reproof,
26I also lwill laugh at your calamity;
I will mock when mterror strikes you,
27when terror strikes you like na storm
and your calamity comes like a whirlwind,
when distress and anguish come upon you.
28 oThen they will call upon me, but I will not answer;
they will seek me diligently but will not find me.
29Because they phated knowledge
and qdid not choose the fear of the Lord,
30 rwould have none of my counsel
and sdespised all my reproof,
31therefore they shall eat tthe fruit of their way,
and have utheir fill of their own devices.
32For the simple are killed by vtheir turning away,
and wthe complacency of fools destroys them;

Isaiah 30:15

15 For thus said the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel,
“In xreturning
Or repentance
and zrest you shall be saved;
in quietness and in trust shall be your strength.”
But you were unwilling,

But they said, ‘We will not walk in it.’
17 acI set watchmen over you, saying,
‘Pay attention to adthe sound of the trumpet!’
But they said, ae‘We will not pay attention.’

Hosea 11:2

the more they went away;
agthey kept sacrificing to the Baals
and burning offerings to idols.
