OET-RV: 29 You showed them their errors so they’d return to following your instructions, but instead they ignored you and didn’t obey your commands. They ignored your values which would have helped them if they’d lived by them and they turned a stubborn shoulder, stiffened their necks, and refused to listen. (NEH 9:29)
