'Listen' in the Bible

Then Ezra the priest brought the law before the assembly of men, women and all who could listen with understanding, on the first day of the seventh month.

“But they, our fathers, acted arrogantly;They became stubborn and would not listen to Your commandments.

“They refused to listen,And did not remember Your wondrous deeds which You had performed among them;So they became stubborn and appointed a leader to return to their slavery in Egypt.But You are a God of forgiveness,Gracious and compassionate,Slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness;And You did not forsake them.

And admonished them in order to turn them back to Your law.Yet they acted arrogantly and did not listen to Your commandments but sinned against Your ordinances,By which if a man observes them he shall live.And they turned a stubborn shoulder and stiffened their neck, and would not listen.
