Ezekiel 3:8

Lo! I have made thy face bold like as their faces, and thy forehead bold like as their forehead.

The Emphasised Bible by J. B. Rotherham

In The King James Version

Behold, I have made thy face strong against their faces, and thy forehead strong against their foreheads.

In Context

7But the house of Israel will not be willing to hearken unto thee, for they are not willing to hearken unto me,—for all the house of Israel are bold of forehead and hard of heart.

9As an adamant harder than flint, have I made thy forehead,—thou shalt not fear them neither shalt thou be dismayed at their faces, For a perverse house, they are!
