Jeremiah 6:20-22
201For what purpose does 2frankincense come to Me from Sheba And the 34sweet cane from a distant land? 5Your burnt offerings are not acceptable And your sacrifices are not pleasing to Me.”21Therefore, thus says the Lord, “Behold, 6I am 7laying stumbling blocks before this people. And they will stumble against them, 8Fathers and sons together; Neighbor and 9friend will perish.”
22Thus says the Lord, “Behold, 10a people is coming from the north land, And a great nation will be aroused from the 11remote parts of the earth.
