Sirach 25:8 Well is he that dwelleth with a wife of understanding, and that hath not slipped with his tongue, and that hath not served a man more unworthy than himself.

Proverbs 21:10 When an intemperate man is punished the simple becomes wiser: and a wise man understanding will receive knowledge.

He that stops his ears from hearing the poor, himself also shall cry, and there shall be none to hear him.

Sirach 6:33 If thou love to hear, thou shalt receive understanding: and if thou bow thine ear, thou shalt be wise. Stand in the multitude of the elders; and cleave unto him that is wise. Be willing to hear every godly discourse: and let not the parables of understanding escape thee.

Proverbs 28:7 A wise son keeps the law: but he that keeps up debauchery dishonours his father. He that increases his wealth by usuries and unjust gains, gathers it for him that pities the poor. He that turns away his ear from hearing the law, even he has made his prayer abominable.

Whereupon they wept, fasted, and prayed before the Lord.

Isaiah 43:7 even all who are called by my name: for I have prepared him for my glory, and I have formed him, and have made him: and I have brought forth the blind people; for their eyes are alike blind, and they that have ears are deaf.

Sirach 43:24 They that sail on the sea tell of the danger thereof; and when we hear it with our ears, we marvel thereat. For therein be strange and wondrous works, variety of all kinds of beasts, the race of whales. By him the end of them hath prosperous success, and by his word all things consist.

Sirach 5:9 Winnow not with every wind, and go not into every way: for so doth the sinner that hath a double tongue. Be stedfast in thy understanding; and let thy word be the same. Be swift to hear; and let thy life be sincere; and with patience give answer.

Baruch 2:29 If ye will not hear my voice, surely this very great multitude shall be turned into a small number among the nations, where I will scatter them.

Proverbs 22:17 Folly is attached to the heart of a child, but the rod and instruction are then far from him. He that oppresses the poor, increases his own substance, yet gives to the rich so as to make it less. Incline thine ear to the words of wise men: hear also my word, and apply thine heart,

Ezekiel 12:1 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying, Son of man, thou dwellest in the midst of the iniquities of those, who have eyes to see, and see not; and have ears to hear, and hear not: because it is a provoking house. Thou therefore, son of man, prepare thyself baggage for going into captivity by day in their sight; and thou shalt be led into captivity from thy place into another place in their sight; that they may see that it is a provoking house.

And the Lord said to Samuel, Behold, I execute my words in Israel; whoever hears them, both his ears shall tingle.

Isaiah 6:9 Ye shall hear indeed, but ye shall not understand; and ye shall see indeed, but ye shall not perceive. For the heart of this people has become gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them. And I said, How long, O Lord? And he said, Until the cities be deserted by reason of their not being inhabited, and the houses by reason of there being no men, and the land shall be left desolate.

Isaiah 33:13 They that are afar off shall hear what I have done; they that draw nigh shall know my strength. The sinners in Sion have departed; trembling shall seize the ungodly. Who will tell you that a fire is kindled? Who will tell you of the eternal place? He that walks in righteousness, speaking rightly, hating transgression and iniquity, and shaking his hands from gifts, stopping his ears that he should not hear the judgment of blood, shutting his eyes that he should not see injustice;

But they refused to attend, and madly turned their back, and made their ears heavy, so that they should not hear.

Sirach 31:24 When one prayeth, and another curseth, whose voice will the Lord hear? He that washeth himself after the touching of a dead body, if he touch it again, what availeth his washing? So is it with a man that fasteth for his sins, and goeth again, and doeth the same: who will hear his prayer? or what doth his humbling profit him?

2Kings 19:16 Incline thine ear, O Lord, and hear: open, Lord, thine eyes, and see: and hear the words of Sennacherim, which he has sent to reproach the living God.

Proverbs 18:13 Whoso answers a word before he hears a cause, it is folly and reproach to him. A wise servant calms a man's anger; but who can endure a faint-hearted man? The heart of the sensible man purchases discretion; and the ears of the wise seek understanding.

Jeremiah 5:20 Proclaim these things to the house of Jacob, and let them be heard in the house of Juda.

Judith 8:15 For if he will not help us within these five days, he hath power to defend us when he will, even every day, or to destroy us before our enemies. Do not bind the counsels of the Lord our God: for God is not as man, that he may be threatened; neither is he as the son of man, that he should be wavering. Therefore let us wait for salvation of him, and call upon him to help us, and he will hear our voice, if it please him.

Psalms 101:1 A Prayer for the Poor; when he is deeply afflicted, and pours out his supplication before the Lord. Hear my prayer, O Lord, and let my cry come to thee. Turn not away thy face from me: in the day when I am afflicted, incline thine ear to me: in the day when I shall call upon thee, speedily hear me.

Isaiah 50:3 I will clothe the sky with darkness, and will make its covering as sackcloth.

2Chronicles 6:39 then shalt thou hear out of heaven, out of thy prepared dwelling-place, their prayer and their supplication, and thou shalt execute justice, and shalt be merciful to thy people that sin against thee.

For they suffer no reverse, and therefore they have not feared God.

1Samuel 25:22 So God do to David and more also, if I leave one male of all that belong to Nabal until the morning.

Jeremiah 18:17 I will scatter them before their enemies like an east wind; I will shew them the day of their destruction.

Come, and let us smite him with the tongue, and we will hear all his words. Hear me, O Lord, and hear the voice of my pleading.

Sirach 45:4 He sanctified him in his faithfulness and meekness, and chose him out of all men. He made him to hear his voice, and brought him into the dark cloud, and gave him commandments before his face, even the law of life and knowledge, that he might teach Jacob his covenants, and Israel his judgments.

They approach thee as a people comes together, and sit before thee, and hear thy words, but they will not do them: for there is falsehood in their mouth, and their heart goes after their pollutions. And thou art to them as the sound of a sweet, well-tuned psaltery, and they will hear thy words, but they will not do them.

Job 39:7 He laughs to scorn the multitude of the city, and hears not the chiding of the tax-gatherer. He will survey the mountains as his pasture, and he seeks after every green thing. And will the unicorn be willing to serve thee, or to lie down at thy manger?

Sirach 32:13 He will not accept any person against a poor man, but will hear the prayer of the oppressed.

Psalms 57:5 Their venom is like that of a serpent; as that of a deaf asp, and that stops her ears; which will not hear the voice of charmers, nor heed the charm prepared skilfully by the wise. God has crushed their teeth in their mouth: God has broken the cheek-teeth of the lions.

Isaiah 48:14 And all shall be gathered, and shall hear: who has told them these things? Out of love to thee I have fulfilled thy desire on Babylon, to abolish the seed of the Chaldeans.

Draw nigh to me, and hear ye these words; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning: when it took place, there was I, and now the Lord, even the Lord, and his Spirit, hath sent me.

Genesis 23:9 And let him give me the double cave which he has, which is in a part of his field, let him give it me for the money it is worth for possession of a burying-place among you.

Psalms 33:1 A Psalm of David, when he changed his countenance before Abimelech; and he let him go, and he departed. I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall be continually in my mouth. My soul shall boast herself in the Lord: let the meek hear, and rejoice.

Proverbs 20:15 The ear hears, and the eye sees: even both of them are the Lord's work. Love not to speak ill, lest thou be cut off: open thine eyes, and be filled with bread. A double weight is an abomination to the Lord; and a deceitful balance is not good in his sight.
