Jeremiah 7
2 - "Stand in the gate of The LORD's house, and proclaim this word there, and say, 'Hear The LORD's word, all you of Judah, who enter in at these gates to worship The LORD.'"
4 - Don't trust in lying words, saying, 'The LORD's temple, The LORD's temple, The LORD's temple, are these.'
5 - For if you thoroughly amend your ways and your doings, if you thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbor;
7 - then I will cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from of old even forever more.
8 - Behold, you trust in lying words that can't profit.
10 - then come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, 'We are delivered;' that you may do all these abominations?
11 - Has this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, I myself have seen it," says The LORD.
12 - "But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I caused my name to dwell at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.
13 - Now, because you have done all these works," says The LORD, "and I spoke to you, rising up early and speaking, but you didn't hear; and I called you, but you didn't answer;
15 - I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brothers, even the whole offspring of Ephraim.
19 - Do they provoke me to anger?" says The LORD. "Don't they provoke themselves, to the confusion of their own faces?"
20 - Therefore thus says the Lord God: "Behold, my anger and my wrath will be poured out on this place, on man, on animal, on the trees of the field, and on the fruit of the ground; and it will burn and will not be quenched."
