Ezekiel 3:9

Like a diamond that is harder than flint, I have made your forehead. Do not be afraid (do not be dismayed, discouraged) of them, and do not be disheartened by their appearance (their faces), for they are a rebellious house (tribe)." [Three times Hebr. chazaq (hard) is repeated. The word alludes to Ezekiel's name (Hebr. Jechezqel), which means "the Lord makes hard/strengthens."]
