They have forsaken the LORD; they have despised the Holy One of Israel and turned their backs on Him. 5 Why do you want more beatings? Why do you keep rebelling? Your head has a massive wound, and your whole heart is afflicted.

And he answered and said, I go, sir: and went not. 31 Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first.

But later he changed his mind and went. 30 Then the man went to the second son and told him the same thing. ‘I will, sir,’ he said.
