'Refractory' in the Bible

and dost testify against them, to bring them back unto Thy law; and they -- they have acted proudly, and have not hearkened to Thy commands, and against Thy judgments have sinned, -- which man doth and hath lived in them -- and they give a refractory shoulder, and their neck have hardened, and have not hearkened.

Ruling by His might to the age, His eyes among the nations do watch, The refractory exalt not themselves. Selah.

God -- causing the lonely to dwell at home, Bringing out bound ones into prosperity, Only -- the refractory have inhabited a dry place.

Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast taken captive captivity, Thou hast taken gifts for men, That even the refractory may rest, O Jah God.

For as a refractory heifer hath Israel turned aside, Now doth Jehovah feed them as a lamb in a large place.

And they refuse to attend, And they give a refractory shoulder, And their ears have made heavy against hearing.
