Isaiah 48:4
Douay-Rheims
For I knew that thou art stubborn, and thy neck is as an iron sinew, and thy forehead as brass.
Ibn Ezra
מדעתי I know. As I knew the former things, so I know also that thou art hardened in thy heart. The second person refers to those Israelites who do not believe in God. And thy neck is of iron. Thou dost not depart from thy way, as if thy neck were of iron. And thy brow brass. And thou dost not blush, as if thy forehead were brass.
