14 How, then, can they call on him they have not believed in? And how can they believe without hearing about him?  * And how can they hear without a preacher?  *

9 Let anyone who has ears*listen."*

14 Isaiah’s prophecy is fulfilled in them, which says:

You will listen and listen,

but never understand;

you will look and look,

but never perceive.*

15 For this people’s heart has grown callous;

their ears are hard of hearing,

and they have shut their eyes;

otherwise they might see with their eyes,

and hear with their ears, and

understand with their hearts,

and turn back —

and I would heal them.*,*

22 But  * be doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.

19 My dear brothers and sisters, understand this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger,  *

19 My dear brothers and sisters, understand this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger,  *20 for human anger does not accomplish God’s righteousness.

24 "Therefore,*everyone who hears these words*of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.

24 "Therefore,*everyone who hears these words*of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.25 The rain fell, the rivers rose, and the winds blew and pounded that house. Yet it didn’t collapse, because its foundation was on the rock.26 But everyone who hears these words of mine and doesn’t act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand.27 The rain fell, the rivers rose, the winds blew and pounded that house, and it collapsed. It collapsed with a great crash."

4 He answered, "It is written: Man must not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of God."*,*

28 He said, "Rather, blessed are those who hear the word of God*and keep it."*

9 Do what you have learned and received  * and heard from me, and seen in me, and the God of peace will be with you.

1 I love the Lord because he has heard

my appeal for mercy.  *

2 Because he has turned his ear to me,

I will call out to him as long as I live.  *

6 I called to the Lord in my distress,

and I cried to my God for help.

From his temple he heard my voice,  *

and my cry to him reached his ears.  *

15 The eyes of the  Lord are on the righteous,

and his ears are open to their cry for help.  *

3 In the morning,  *Lord, you hear my voice;

in the morning I plead my case to you  * and watch expectantly.

8 Let me hear joy and gladness;

let the bones you have crushed rejoice.  *

8 Let me experience

your faithful love in the morning,

for I trust in you.  *

Reveal to me the way I should go

because I appeal to you.  *

14 This is the confidence we have before him: If we ask  * anything according to his will, he hears us.  *

15 And if we know that he hears whatever we ask,  * we know that we have what we have asked of him.  *

12 You will call to me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.  *

3 Call to me and I will answer you  * and tell you great and incomprehensible things you do not know.  *

1 Indeed, the Lord’s arm is not too weak to save,  *

and his ear is not too deaf to hear.

27 My sheep hear my voice, I know them, and they follow me.

24 "Truly I tell you, anyone who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life*and will not come under judgment but has passed from death to life.

25 "Truly I tell you, an hour is coming, and is now here,*when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.*

20 See! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.*

20 See! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me.*

4 You must follow the Lord your God and fear him. You must keep his commands and listen to him; you must worship him and remain faithful  * to him.  *

5 So then, does God give you the Spirit and work miracles  * among you by your doing the works of the law? Or is it by believing what you heard — 

13 The one who gives an answer before he listens —

this is foolishness and disgrace for him.  *

20 The one who understands a matter finds success,  *

and the one who trusts in the  Lord will be happy.  *

20 My son, keep your father’s command,

and don’t reject your mother’s teaching.  *

17 The one who follows instruction is on the path to life,

but the one who rejects correction goes astray.  *

9 Anyone who turns his ear away from hearing the law —

even his prayer is detestable.  *

5 It is better to listen to rebuke from a wise person

than to listen to the song of fools,  *

8 All things  * are wearisome,

more than anyone can say.

The eye is not satisfied by seeing  *

or the ear filled with hearing.

21 "If you act with hostility toward me and are unwilling to obey me, I will multiply your plagues seven times for your sins.  *

2 If you don’t listen, and if you don’t take it to heart  * to honor my name," says the Lord of Armies, "I will send a curse among you, and I will curse your blessings.  * In fact, I have already begun to curse them because you are not taking it to heart.

27 But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth,  * and you will say to them, ‘This is what the Lord God says.’ Let the one who listens, listen, and let the one who refuses, refuse — for they are a rebellious house.

11 Look, the days are coming —

this is the declaration of the Lord  God  —

when I will send a famine through the land:

not a famine of bread or a thirst for water,

but of hearing the words of the  Lord.  *

25 About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.

9 Then Joshua told the Israelites, "Come closer and listen to the words of the Lord your God."

3 Therefore, whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in an ear in private rooms*will be proclaimed on the housetops.*

15 "If your brother sins against you,*go tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have won your brother.*

15 "If your brother sins against you,*go tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have won your brother.*16 But if he won’t listen, take one or two others with you, so that by the testimony*of two or three witnesses every fact may be established.*,*17 If he doesn’t pay attention to them, tell the church.*,*If he doesn’t pay attention even to the church, let him be like a Gentile and a tax collector to you.*

9 Jethro rejoiced over all the good things the Lord had done for Israel when he rescued them from the power of the Egyptians.

5 For the waves of death engulfed me;  *

the torrents of destruction terrified me.

6 The ropes of Sheol entangled me;

the snares of death confronted me.  *

7 I called to the  Lord in my distress;

I called to my God.  *

From his temple he heard my voice,

and my cry for help reached his ears.
