Psalm 78:8

“Remember the ancient days, Consider the years from generation to generation. Ask your father, and he will declare to you, Your elders, and they will speak to you.

“If you would set your heart right And spread out your hand to Him,

For their heart was not prepared to remain with Him, Nor were they faithful in His covenant.

We have sinned with our fathers, We have committed iniquity, we have acted wickedly.

‘But this people has a stubborn and rebellious heart; They have turned aside and gone away.

“They have turned back to the iniquities of their ancestors who refused to hear My words, and they have walked after other gods to serve them; the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken My covenant which I cut with their fathers.”

Since Israel is stubborn Like a stubborn heifer, Can Yahweh now feed them Like a lamb in a large field?

“Do not be like your fathers, to whom the former prophets called out, saying, ‘Thus says Yahweh of hosts, “Return now from your evil ways and from your evil deeds.”’ But they did not listen or give heed to Me,” declares Yahweh.
