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, this is what the Lord says: “Behold, 6I am 7placing stumbling blocks before this people. And they will stumble against them, 8Fathers and sons together; Neighbor and 9friend will perish.”
22This is what the Lord says: “Behold, there is 10a people coming from the north land, And a great nation will be stirred up from the 11remote parts of the earth.
