'Answer' in the Bible

So you shall speak to them all these words, but they will not listen to you, and you shall call to them, but they will not answer you.

Then they will answer, 'Because they abandoned the covenant of Yahweh their God, and bowed down in worship to other gods, and served them.'"

And you yourself shall prophesy against them all these words, and you shall say to them: 'Yahweh will roar from [on] high, and from {his holy dwelling place} he will give his voice. He will roar mightily against his settlement, a jubilant shout like those who tread [grapes], he will answer against all the inhabitants of the earth.

'Call to me, and I will answer you, and I will tell you great [things] and inaccessible [things that] you have not known.'
