Jeremiah 7:21-24

21This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel says: “Add your 1burnt offerings to your sacrifices and 2eat flesh.

22For I did not 3speak to your fathers, or command them on the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings and sacrifices.

23But this is 4what I commanded them, saying, ‘5Obey My voice, and 6I will be your God, and you will be My people; and you shall walk 7entirely in the way which I command you, so that it may 8go well for you.’

24Yet they 9did not obey or incline their ear, but walked by their own advice and in the stubbornness of their evil hearts, and they 1011went backward and not forward.
