Jeremiah 11:6-8

Contemporary English Version

⁶ Then the Lord told me to say to everyone on the streets of Jerusalem and in the towns of Judah:

Pay attention to the commands in my agreement with you. ⁷ Ever since I brought your ancestors out of Egypt, I have been telling your people to obey me. But you and your ancestors ⁸ have always been stubborn. You have refused to listen, and instead you have done whatever your sinful hearts have desired.

You have not kept the agreement we made, so I will make you suffer every curse that goes with it.
