Jeremiah 5:21
New Living Translation (NLT)
21 Listen, you foolish and senseless people,
with eyes that do not see
and ears that do not hear.
Have you ever spoken to someone, only to realize that the person hasn't heard a word you were saying? Jeremiah told the people that their eyes and ears did them no good because they refused to see or hear God's message. The people of Israel and Judah were foolishly deaf when God promised blessings for obedience and destruction for disobedience. When God speaks through His Word or His messengers, we harm ourselves if we fail to listen. God's message will never change us unless we listen to it.
