Ears

Yet to this day the LORD has not given you a mind to understand, eyes to see, or ears to hear.

Then the LORD said to Samuel, “I am about to do something in Israel at which the ears of all who hear it will tingle.

How great You are, O Lord GOD! For there is none like You, and there is no God but You, according to everything we have heard with our own ears.

In my distress I called upon the LORD; I cried out to my God. And from His temple He heard my voice, and my cry for help reached His ears.

Because your rage and arrogance against Me have reached My ears, I will put My hook in your nose and My bit in your mouth; I will send you back the way you came.’

…this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I am bringing such calamity upon Jerusalem and Judah that the news will reverberate in the ears of all who hear it.

O LORD, there is none like You, and there is no God but You, according to everything we have heard with our own ears.

Now, my God, may Your eyes be open and Your ears attentive to the prayer offered in this place.

Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place.

…let Your eyes be open and Your ears attentive to hear the prayer that I, Your servant, now pray before You day and night for Your servants, the Israelites. I confess the sins that we Israelites have committed against You. Both I and my father’s house have sinned.

…and you have even appointed prophets in Jerusalem to proclaim on your behalf: ‘There is a king in Judah.’ Soon these rumors will reach the ears of the king. So come, let us confer together.”

Now a word came to me secretly; my ears caught a whisper of it.

“Indeed, my eyes have seen all this; my ears have heard and understood.

Listen carefully to my words; let my declaration ring in your ears.

Sounds of terror fill his ears; in his prosperity the destroyer attacks him.

He opens their ears and terrifies them with warnings

He opens their ears to correction and commands that they turn from iniquity.

God rescues the afflicted by their affliction and opens their ears in oppression.

My ears had heard of You, but now my eyes have seen You.

In my distress I called upon the LORD; I cried to my God for help. From His temple He heard my voice, and my cry for His help reached His ears.

The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, and His ears are inclined to their cry.

Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but my ears You have opened. Burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not require.

For the choirmaster. A Maskil of the sons of Korah. We have heard with our ears, O God; our fathers have told us the work You did in their days, in the days of old.

Their venom is like the venom of a snake, like a cobra that shuts its ears,

My eyes see the downfall of my enemies; my ears hear the wailing of my wicked foes.

…they have ears, but cannot hear; they have noses, but cannot smell;

O Lord, hear my voice; let Your ears be attentive to my plea for mercy.

…they have ears, but cannot hear; nor is there breath in their mouths.

Ears that hear and eyes that see—the LORD has made them both.

Whoever shuts his ears to the cry of the poor, he too shall cry out and receive no answer.

Apply your heart to instruction and your ears to words of knowledge.

Like one who grabs a dog by the ears is a passerby who meddles in a quarrel not his own.

Make the hearts of this people calloused; deafen their ears and close their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn and be healed.”

Make the hearts of this people calloused; deafen their ears and close their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn and be healed.”

And He will delight in the fear of the LORD. He will not judge by what His eyes see, and He will not decide by what His ears hear,

…as the reaper gathers the standing grain and harvests the ears with his arm, as one gleans heads of grain in the Valley of Rephaim.

And whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear this command behind you: “This is the way. Walk in it.”

Then the eyes of those who see will no longer be closed, and the ears of those who hear will listen.

He who walks righteously and speaks with sincerity, who refuses gain from extortion, whose hand never takes a bribe, who stops his ears against murderous plots and shuts his eyes tightly against evil—

Then the eyes of the blind will be opened and the ears of the deaf unstopped.

Because your rage and arrogance against Me have reached My ears, I will put My hook in your nose and My bit in your mouth; I will send you back the way you came.’

Though seeing many things, you do not keep watch. Though your ears are open, you do not hear.”

Bring out a people who have eyes but are blind, and who have ears but are deaf.

You have never heard; you have never understood; for a long time your ears have not been open. For I knew how deceitful you are; you have been called a rebel from birth.

The Lord GOD has opened My ears, and I have not been rebellious, nor have I turned back.

“Hear this, O foolish and senseless people, who have eyes but do not see, who have ears but do not hear.

To whom can I give this warning? Who will listen to me? Look, their ears are closed, so they cannot hear. See, the word of the LORD has become offensive to them; they find no pleasure in it.

Now, O women, hear the word of the LORD. Open your ears to the word of His mouth. Teach your daughters to wail, and one another to lament.

Yet they would not obey or incline their ears, but each one followed the stubbornness of his evil heart. So I brought on them all the curses of this covenant I had commanded them to follow but they did not keep.”

…saying, ‘Hear the word of the LORD, O kings of Judah and residents of Jerusalem. This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: I am going to bring such disaster on this place that the ears of all who hear of it will ring,

Then the priests and prophets said to the officials and all the people, “This man is worthy of death, for he has prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your own ears!”

But they did not listen or incline their ears; they did not turn from their wickedness or stop burning incense to other gods.

Therefore I will respond with wrath. I will not look on them with pity, nor will I spare them. Although they shout loudly in My ears, I will not listen to them.”

“Son of man, you are living in a rebellious house. They have eyes to see but do not see, and ears to hear but do not hear, for they are a rebellious house.

I put a ring in your nose, earrings on your ears, and a beautiful crown upon your head.

And I will set My jealous rage against you, and they will deal with you in fury. They will cut off your noses and ears, and your survivors will fall by the sword. They will seize your sons and daughters, and your remnant will be consumed by fire.

“Son of man,” he said to me, “look with your eyes, hear with your ears, and pay attention to everything I am going to show you, for that is why you have been brought here. Report to the house of Israel everything you see.”

The LORD said to me: “Son of man, pay attention; look carefully with your eyes and listen closely with your ears to everything I tell you concerning all the statutes and laws of the house of the LORD. Take careful note of the entrance to the temple, along with all the exits of the sanctuary.

Nations will see and be ashamed, deprived of all their might. They will put their hands over their mouths, and their ears will become deaf.

But they refused to pay attention and turned a stubborn shoulder; they stopped up their ears from hearing.

He who has ears, let him hear.

He who has ears, let him hear.”

For this people’s heart has grown callous; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.’

For this people’s heart has grown callous; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.’

But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.

Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.

Then Jesus said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”

So Jesus took him aside privately, away from the crowd, and put His fingers into the man’s ears. Then He spit and touched the man’s tongue.

Immediately the man’s ears were opened and his tongue was released, and he began to speak plainly.

‘Having eyes, do you not see? And having ears, do you not hear?’ And do you not remember?

For as soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy.

Still other seed fell on good soil, where it sprang up and produced a crop—a hundredfold.” As Jesus said this, He called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

“Let these words sink into your ears: The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men.”

It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile, and it is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

You stiff-necked people with uncircumcised hearts and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit, just as your fathers did.

At this they covered their ears, cried out in a loud voice, and rushed together at him.

When news of this reached the ears of the church in Jerusalem, they sent Barnabas to Antioch.

For you are bringing some strange notions to our ears, and we want to know what they mean.”

For this people’s heart has grown callous; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.’

For this people’s heart has grown callous; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.’

…as it is written: “God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that could not see, and ears that could not hear, to this very day.”

For the time will come when men will not tolerate sound doctrine, but with itching ears they will gather around themselves teachers to suit their own desires.

So they will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.

Look, the wages you withheld from the workmen who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of Hosts.

For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are inclined to their prayer. But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”
