4Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass;
1 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah, which swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness.
2 For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The LORD of hosts is his name.
3 I have declared the former things from the beginning; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I shewed them; I did them suddenly, and they came to pass.
4 Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass;
5 I have even from the beginning declared it to thee; before it came to pass I shewed it thee: lest thou shouldest say, Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them.

48:4For I knew how stubborn you were; the sinews of your neck were iron, your forehead was bronze.
48:4For I knew that thou art stubborn, and thy neck is as an iron sinew, and thy forehead as brass.
48:4Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass;
48:4Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass,
48:4Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass;
48:4Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass;
48:4Because I knew that you are obstinate, and your neck is an iron sinew, and your brow brass;
48:4From my knowing that thou art obstinate, And a sinew of iron thy neck, And thy forehead brass,
48:4Because I knew that you are obstinate, and your neck is an iron sinew, and your brow brass;
