Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.

But most certainly, God has listened. He has heard the voice of my prayer.

Hear, Yahweh, my prayer. Listen to the voice of my petitions.

My son, pay attention to my wisdom. Turn your ear to my understanding,

Listen to my cry, for I am in desperate need. Deliver me from my persecutors, for they are too strong for me.

Because I have called, and you have refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no one has paid attention;

so as to turn your ear to wisdom, and apply your heart to understanding;

Listen, sons, to a father’s instruction. Pay attention and know understanding;

My son, attend to my words. Turn your ear to my sayings.

Now therefore, sons, listen to me. Pay attention to the words of my mouth.

An evildoer heeds wicked lips. A liar gives ear to a mischievous tongue.

If a ruler listens to lies, all of his officials are wicked.

You who dwell in the gardens, with friends in attendance, let me hear your voice!

Cry aloud with your voice, daughter of Gallim! Listen, Laishah! You poor Anathoth!

When he sees a troop, horsemen in pairs, a troop of donkeys, a troop of camels, he shall listen diligently with great attentiveness.”

Give ear, and hear my voice! Listen, and hear my speech!

The eyes of those who see will not be dim, and the ears of those who hear will listen.

Come near, you nations, to hear! Listen, you peoples. Let the earth and all it contains hear, the world, and everything that comes from it.

Who is there among you who will give ear to this? Who will listen and hear for the time to come?

Oh that you had listened to my commandments! Then your peace would have been like a river and your righteousness like the waves of the sea.

Listen, islands, to me. Listen, you peoples, from afar: Yahweh has called me from the womb; from the inside of my mother, he has mentioned my name.

“Listen to me, my people; and hear me, my nation, for a law will go out from me, and I will establish my justice for a light to the peoples.

To whom should I speak and testify, that they may hear? Behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they can’t listen. Behold, Yahweh’s word has become a reproach to them. They have no delight in it.

I set watchmen over you, saying, ‘Listen to the sound of the trumpet!’ But they said, ‘We will not listen!’

I set watchmen over you, saying, ‘Listen to the sound of the trumpet!’ But they said, ‘We will not listen!’

Hear, earth! Behold, I will bring evil on this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not listened to my words; and as for my law, they have rejected it.

I listened and heard, but they didn’t say what is right. No one repents of his wickedness, saying, “What have I done?” Everyone turns to his course, as a horse that rushes headlong in the battle.

Then they said, “Come! Let’s devise plans against Jeremiah; for the law won’t perish from the priest, nor counsel from the wise, nor the word from the prophet. Come, and let’s strike him with the tongue, and let’s not give heed to any of his words.”

Give heed to me, Yahweh, and listen to the voice of those who contend with me.

For who has stood in the council of Yahweh, that he should perceive and hear his word? Who has listened to my word, and heard it?

Lord, hear. Lord, forgive. Lord, listen and do. Don’t defer, for your own sake, my God, because your city and your people are called by your name.”

“Listen to this, you priests! Listen, house of Israel, and give ear, house of the king! For the judgment is against you; for you have been a snare at Mizpah, and a net spread on Tabor.

Hear, you peoples, all of you. Listen, O earth, and all that is therein: and let the Lord Yahweh be witness against you, the Lord from his holy temple.

Don’t you be like your fathers, to whom the former prophets proclaimed, saying: Yahweh of Armies says, ‘Return now from your evil ways, and from your evil doings;’ but they didn’t hear, nor listen to me, says Yahweh.

But they refused to listen, and turned their backs, and stopped their ears, that they might not hear.

Then those who feared Yahweh spoke one with another; and Yahweh listened, and heard, and a book of memory was written before him, for those who feared Yahweh, and who honored his name.
