Jeremiah 17:23

But they hearkened not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, and might not receive instruction.

They wouldn’t listen or pay attention but became obstinate, not listening or accepting discipline.

Yet they did not listen or incline their ear, but stiffened their neck, that they might not hear and receive instruction.

But they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction.

Yet they did not listen or incline their ears, but stiffened their necks so as not to listen or accept discipline.

But they did not obey nor incline their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear nor receive instruction.

but they did not listen or obey. They stubbornly refused to pay attention or accept my discipline.

But they didn’t listen. They didn’t turn their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, and might not receive instruction.
