Bible. Jeremiah
24:006:028 They are all grievous revolters, walking with slanders: they
are brass and iron; they are all corrupters.
24:006:029 The bellows are burned, the lead is consumed of the fire; the
founder melteth in vain: for the wicked are not plucked away.
24:006:030 Reprobate silver shall men call them, because the LORD hath
rejected them.
24:007:001 The word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying,
24:007:002 Stand in the gate of the LORD's house, and proclaim there this
word, and say, Hear the word of the LORD, all ye of Judah,
that enter in at these gates to worship the LORD.
24:007:003 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your
ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this
place.
24:007:004 Trust ye not in lying words, saying, The temple of the LORD,
The temple of the LORD, The temple of the LORD, are these.
24:007:005 For if ye throughly amend your ways and your doings; if ye
throughly execute judgment between a man and his neighbour;
24:007:006 If ye oppress not the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow,
and shed not innocent blood in this place, neither walk after
other gods to your hurt:
24:007:007 Then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that
I gave to your fathers, for ever and ever.
24:007:008 Behold, ye trust in lying words, that cannot profit.
24:007:009 Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely,
and burn incense unto Baal, and walk after other gods whom ye
know not;
24:007:010 And come and stand before me in this house, which is called by
my name, and say, We are delivered to do all these
abominations?
24:007:011 Is this house, which is called by my name, become a den of
robbers in your eyes? Behold, even I have seen it, saith the
LORD.
24:007:012 But go ye now unto my place which was in Shiloh, where I set
my name at the first, and see what I did to it for the
wickedness of my people Israel.
24:007:013 And now, because ye have done all these works, saith the LORD,
and I spake unto you, rising up early and speaking, but ye
heard not; and I called you, but ye answered not;
24:007:014 Therefore will I do unto this house, which is called by my
name, wherein ye trust, and unto the place which I gave to you
and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.
24:007:015 And I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all
your brethren, even the whole seed of Ephraim.
24:007:016 Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up cry
nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me: for I
will not hear thee.
24:007:017 Seest thou not what they do in the cities of Judah and in the
streets of Jerusalem?
