Jeremiah 7
The
word
that
came
to
Jeremiah
from
the
Lord,
saying,
2 Stand
in
the
gate
of
the
Lord's
house,
and
proclaim
there
this
word,
and
say,
Hear
the
word
of
the
Lord,
all
ye
of
Judah,
that
enter
in
at
these
gates
to
worship
the
Lord.
3 Thus
saith
the
Lord
of
hosts,
the
God
of
Israel,
a
Amend
your
ways
and
your
doings,
and
I
will
cause
you
to
dwell
in
this
place.
4 Trust
ye
not
in
lying
words,
saying,
The
temple
of
the
Lord,
The
temple
of
the
Lord,
The
temple
of
the
Lord,
are
these.
5 For
if
ye
a
throughly
amend
your
ways
and
your
doings;
if
ye
throughly
execute
judgment
between
a
man
and
his
neighbour;
6 If
ye
oppress
not
the
a
stranger,
the
b
fatherless,
and
the
widow,
and
shed
not
innocent
blood
in
this
place,
neither
walk
after
other
gods
to
your
hurt:
7 Then
will
I
cause
you
to
dwell
in
this
place,
in
the
land
that
I
gave
to
your
fathers,
for
ever
and
ever.
8 Behold,
ye
a
trust
in
b
lying
words,
that
cannot
profit.
9 Will
ye
steal,
a
murder,
and
commit
adultery,
and
swear
falsely,
and
burn
incense
unto
Baal,
and
b
walk
after
other
gods
whom
ye
know
not;
10 And
come
and
a
stand
before
me
in
this
house,
which
is
called
by
my
name,
and
say,
We
are
delivered
to
do
all
these
abominations?
11 Is
this
a
house,
which
is
called
by
my
name,
become
a
b
den
of
c
robbers
in
your
eyes?
Behold,
even
I
have
seen
it,
saith
the
Lord.
12 But
go
ye
now
unto
my
place
which
was
in
a
Shiloh,
where
I
set
my
name
at
the
first,
and
see
what
I
did
to
it
for
the
wickedness
of
my
people
Israel.
13 And
now,
because
ye
have
done
all
these
works,
saith
the
Lord,
and
I
spake
unto
you,
rising
up
early
and
speaking,
but
ye
heard
not;
and
I
called
you,
but
ye
a
answered
not;
14 Therefore
will
I
do
unto
this
a
house,
which
is
called
by
my
name,
wherein
ye
trust,
and
unto
the
place
which
I
gave
to
you
and
to
your
fathers,
as
I
have
done
to
Shiloh.
15 And
I
will
cast
you
out
of
my
sight,
as
I
have
cast
out
all
your
brethren,
even
the
whole
seed
of
Ephraim.
16 Therefore
pray
not
thou
for
this
people,
neither
lift
up
cry
nor
prayer
for
them,
neither
make
intercession
to
me:
for
I
will
not
a
hear
thee.
17 Seest
thou
not
what
they
do
in
the
cities
of
Judah
and
in
the
streets
of
Jerusalem?
18 The
children
gather
wood,
and
the
fathers
kindle
the
fire,
and
the
women
knead
their
dough,
to
make
cakes
to
a
the
queen
of
heaven,
and
to
pour
out
drink
offerings
unto
other
gods,
that
they
may
provoke
me
to
anger.
19 Do
they
provoke
me
to
anger?
saith
the
Lord:
do
they
not
provoke
themselves
a
to
the
confusion
of
their
own
faces?
20 Therefore
thus
saith
the
Lord
God;
Behold,
mine
a
anger
and
my
fury
shall
be
poured
out
upon
this
place,
upon
man,
and
upon
beast,
and
upon
the
trees
of
the
field,
and
upon
the
fruit
of
the
ground;
and
it
shall
burn,
and
shall
not
be
quenched.
21 Thus
saith
the
Lord
of
hosts,
the
God
of
Israel;
Put
your
burnt
offerings
unto
your
sacrifices,
and
eat
flesh.
22 For
I
spake
not
unto
your
fathers,
nor
commanded
them
in
the
day
that
I
brought
them
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt,
concerning
burnt
offerings
or
sacrifices:
23 But
this
thing
commanded
I
them,
saying,
a
Obey
my
b
voice,
and
I
will
be
your
God,
and
ye
shall
be
my
people:
and
walk
ye
in
all
the
ways
that
I
have
commanded
you,
that
it
may
be
well
unto
you.
24 But
they
hearkened
not,
nor
inclined
their
ear,
but
walked
in
the
counsels
and
in
the
a
imagination
of
their
evil
heart,
and
went
b
backward,
and
not
forward.
25 Since
the
day
that
your
fathers
came
forth
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt
unto
this
day
I
have
even
a
sent
unto
you
all
my
servants
the
b
prophets,
daily
rising
up
early
and
sending
them:
26 Yet
they
hearkened
not
unto
me,
nor
inclined
their
ear,
but
a
hardened
their
neck:
they
did
b
worse
than
their
fathers.
27 Therefore
thou
shalt
speak
all
these
words
unto
them;
but
they
will
not
hearken
to
thee:
thou
shalt
also
call
unto
them;
but
they
will
not
answer
thee.
28 But
thou
shalt
say
unto
them,
This
is
a
nation
that
a
obeyeth
not
the
voice
of
the
Lord
their
God,
nor
receiveth
correction:
truth
is
perished,
and
is
cut
off
from
their
mouth.
29 Cut
off
thine
hair,
O
Jerusalem,
and
cast
it
away,
and
take
up
a
a
lamentation
on
high
places;
for
the
Lord
hath
rejected
and
forsaken
the
generation
of
his
wrath.
30 For
the
children
of
Judah
have
done
evil
in
my
sight,
saith
the
Lord:
they
have
set
their
a
abominations
in
the
house
which
is
called
by
my
name,
to
b
pollute
it.
31 And
they
have
built
the
high
places
of
a
Tophet,
which
is
in
the
valley
of
the
son
of
b
Hinnom,
to
c
burn
their
sons
and
their
daughters
in
the
d
fire;
which
I
commanded
them
not,
neither
came
it
into
my
heart.
32 Therefore,
behold,
the
days
come,
saith
the
Lord,
that
it
shall
no
more
be
called
Tophet,
nor
the
valley
of
the
son
of
Hinnom,
but
the
valley
of
slaughter:
for
they
shall
bury
in
Tophet,
till
there
be
no
place.
33 And
the
a
carcases
of
this
people
shall
be
meat
for
the
fowls
of
the
heaven,
and
for
the
beasts
of
the
earth;
and
none
shall
fray
them
away.
34 Then
will
I
cause
to
cease
from
the
cities
of
Judah,
and
from
the
streets
of
Jerusalem,
the
voice
of
a
mirth,
and
the
b
voice
of
gladness,
the
voice
of
the
bridegroom,
and
the
voice
of
the
bride:
for
the
land
shall
be
c
desolate.
