Jeremiah 11:2-8

2“ListenH8085 to the wordsH1697 of thisH2063 covenantH1285 and tell themH1696 toH413 the menH376 of JudahH3063H5921 and the residentsH3427 of JerusalemH3389. 3You must tell them thatH559H413 this is whatH3541 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, saysH559: Cursed isH779 the manH376 whoH834 does notH3808 obeyH8085 the wordsH1697 of thisH2063 covenantH1285, 4whichH834 I commandedH6680 your forefathersH1 whenH3117 I brought them outH3318 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714, out of the ironH1270 furnaceH3564, sayingH559, ‘Obey MeH8085H6963, and doH6213 everythingH3605 I command youH6680, and you will beH1961 My peopleH5971, and IH595 will beH1961 your GodH430.’ 5This was in order toH4616 establishH6965 the oathH7621 I sworeH7650 to your forefathersH1, to give themH5414 a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706, as it is to this dayH3117H2088.”

“AmenH543, LORDH3068,” I answeredH6030H559.

6Then the LORDH3068 saidH559 to meH413, “ProclaimH7121 allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697 in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 and in the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389, sayingH559: HearH8085 the wordsH1697 of thisH2063 covenantH1285 and carry them outH6213. 7ForH3588 from the timeH3117 I broughtH5927 your fathersH1 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 untilH5704 todayH3117H2088, I strongly warned themH5749 again and againH7925H5749,1 sayingH559, ‘ObeyH8085 My voiceH6963.’ 8Yet they wouldH3808 notH3808 obeyH8085 or inclineH5186 their earsH241, but each oneH376 followedH1980 the stubbornnessH8307 of his evilH7451 heartH3820. So I broughtH935 onH5921 themH853 allH3605 the cursesH1697 of thisH2063 covenantH1285 I had commanded themH6680 to followH6213 but they did not keepH6213H3808.”
