6 Although Saul would inquire of Jehovah,+ Jehovah never answered him,+ either by dreams+ or by the Uʹrim+ or by the prophets.+

15 And when YOU spread out YOUR palms,+ I hide my eyes from YOU.+ Even though YOU make many prayers,+ I am not listening;+ with bloodshed* YOUR very hands have become filled.+

3 “Son of man, speak with the elderly men of Israel, and you must say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord Jehovah has said: “Is it in order to inquire of me that YOU men are coming?+ ‘As I am alive, I will not be inquired of by* YOU,’+ is the utterance of the Sovereign Lord Jehovah.”’
