## Ezekiel 3:7-8 in Context (Verses 4–11 KJV)
 
 [4 ](/kjv/ezekiel/3/4) ¶ And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.
 
 [5 ](/kjv/ezekiel/3/5) For thou *art* not sent to a people of a strange speech and of an hard language, *but* to the house of Israel;*
 
 [6 ](/kjv/ezekiel/3/6) Not to many people of a strange speech and of an hard language, whose words thou canst not understand. Surely, had I sent thee to them, they would have hearkened unto thee.**
 
 [7 ](/kjv/ezekiel/3/7) But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee; for they will not hearken unto me: for all the house of Israel *are* impudent and hardhearted.*
 
 [8 ](/kjv/ezekiel/3/8) Behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead strong against their foreheads.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/ezekiel/3/9) As an adamant harder than flint have I made thy forehead: fear them not, neither be dismayed at their looks, though they *be* a rebellious house.
 
 [10 ](/kjv/ezekiel/3/10) Moreover he said unto me, Son of man, all my words that I shall speak unto thee receive in thine heart, and hear with thine ears.
 
 [11 ](/kjv/ezekiel/3/11) And go, get thee to them of the captivity, unto the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and tell them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.
 
[Ezekiel 2](/kjv/ezekiel/2) [Ezekiel 4](/kjv/ezekiel/4)
