3. 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12: And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

8. Jeremiah 8:5-6: Why will ye die, thou people? Why will ye perish, thou nation that is called by my name? Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Because they have rejected the words of the Lord, and have not obeyed the law, nor the statutes, nor the testimonies which he gave unto their fathers.
9. 2 Peter 2:20-22: For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.

10. Judges 2:11-13: And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord, and served Baalim: And they forsook the Lord God of their fathers, which had brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the people that were round about them, and bowed themselves unto them, and provoked the Lord to anger.

Ephesians 2:1-3: And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
15. Isaiah 30:9-11: That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the Lord: Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits: Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.
These verses highlight various aspects of human nature that lead to the rejection of God's guidance, such as a preference for one's own desires and the avoidance of accountability for one's actions.
