Jeremiah 11:7

Compare all

5 that I may establish the ^aoath which I have sworn to your fathers, to give them ^b‘a land flowing with milk and honey,’ as it is this day.” ’ ” And I answered and said, “So be it, Lord.”

6 Then the Lord said to me, “Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying: ‘Hear the words of this covenant ^aand do them.

7 For I earnestly exhorted your fathers in the day I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, until this day, ^arising early and exhorting, saying, “Obey My voice.”

8 ^aYet they did not obey or incline their ear, but ^beveryone followed the dictates of his evil heart; therefore I will bring upon them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do, but which they have not done.’ ”

9 And the Lord said to me, ^a“A conspiracy has been found among the men of Judah and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

10 They have turned back to ^athe iniquities of their forefathers who refused to hear My words, and they have gone after other gods to serve them; the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken My covenant which I made with their fathers.”
