'Continue' in the Bible

Why do you insist on being battered? Why do you continue to rebel? Your head has a massive wound, your whole body is weak.

This desolation will continue until new life is poured out on us from heaven. Then the desert will become an orchard and the orchard will be considered a forest.

In light of all this, how can you still hold back, Lord? How can you be silent and continue to humiliate us?
