Bible. Jeremiah
24:035:015 I have sent also unto you all my servants the prophets, rising
up early and sending them, saying, Return ye now every man
from his evil way, and amend your doings, and go not after
other gods to serve them, and ye shall dwell in the land which
I have given to you and to your fathers: but ye have not
inclined your ear, nor hearkened unto me.
24:035:016 Because the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have performed
the commandment of their father, which he commanded them; but
this people hath not hearkened unto me:
24:035:017 Therefore thus saith the LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel;
Behold, I will bring upon Judah and upon all the inhabitants
of Jerusalem all the evil that I have pronounced against them:
because I have spoken unto them, but they have not heard; and
I have called unto them, but they have not answered.
24:035:018 And Jeremiah said unto the house of the Rechabites, Thus saith
the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Because ye have obeyed
the commandment of Jonadab your father, and kept all his
precepts, and done according unto all that he hath commanded
you:
24:035:019 Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel;
Jonadab the son of Rechab shall not want a man to stand before
me for ever.
24:036:001 And it came to pass in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of
Josiah king of Judah, that this word came unto Jeremiah from
the LORD, saying,
24:036:002 Take thee a roll of a book, and write therein all the words
that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against
Judah, and against all the nations, from the day I spake unto
thee, from the days of Josiah, even unto this day.
24:036:003 It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which
I purpose to do unto them; that they may return every man from
his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin.
24:036:004 Then Jeremiah called Baruch the son of Neriah: and Baruch
wrote from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the LORD,
which he had spoken unto him, upon a roll of a book.
24:036:005 And Jeremiah commanded Baruch, saying, I am shut up; I cannot
go into the house of the LORD:
24:036:006 Therefore go thou, and read in the roll, which thou hast
written from my mouth, the words of the LORD in the ears of
the people in the LORD's house upon the fasting day: and also
thou shalt read them in the ears of all Judah that come out of
their cities.
24:036:007 It may be they will present their supplication before the
LORD, and will return every one from his evil way: for great
is the anger and the fury that the LORD hath pronounced
against this people.
