Jeremiah 26:3-6

Easy-to-Read Version

³ Maybe they will listen and obey my message. Maybe they will stop living such evil lives. If they change, I will change my mind about my plans to punish them. I am planning this punishment because of the many evil things they have done. ⁴ You will say to them, ‘This is what the Lord says: I gave my teachings to you. You must obey me and follow my teachings. ⁵ You must listen to what my servants say to you. The prophets are my servants. I have sent my prophets to you again and again, but you did not listen to them. ⁶ If you don’t obey me, I will make my Temple in Jerusalem just like my Holy Tent at Shiloh.^[a] People all over the world will think of Jerusalem when they ask for bad things to happen to other cities.’”
