Jeremiah 6:20-22

20What use to me is frankincense that comes from Sheba, or sweet cane from a distant land? Your burnt offerings are not acceptable, nor your sacrifices pleasing to me.

21Therefore thus says the Lord: 'Behold, I will lay before this people stumbling blocks against which they shall stumble; fathers and sons together, neighbor and friend shall perish.'"

22Thus says the Lord: "Behold, a people is coming from the north country, a great nation is stirring from the farthest parts of the earth.
