'Admonish' in the Bible

Hear, O my people, and I will admonish you; O Israel, if you would [but] listen to me.

To whom shall I speak and admonish, that they may hear? Look, their ears [are] {closed}, and they are not able to listen attentively. Look, the word of Yahweh is to them an object of scorn, they do not delight in it.
