29 that your eyes may prove to be opened+ toward this house night and day, toward the place of which you said, ‘My name will prove to be there,’+ to listen to the prayer with which your servant prays toward this place.+
27 They are saying to a tree, ‘You are my father,’+ and to a stone, ‘You yourself brought me to birth.’ But to me they have turned the back of the neck and not the face.+ And in the time of their calamity they will say, ‘Do rise up and save us!’+
33 And they kept turning to me the back and not the face;+ though there was a teaching of them, a rising up early and teaching, but there were none of them listening to receive discipline.+
