and let it come, that we may know it!”

Jeremiah 36:29-31
English Standard Version
29 And concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah you shall say, ‘Thus says the Lord, You have burned this scroll, saying, (A)“Why have you written in it that the king of Babylon will certainly come and destroy this land, and will cut off from it man and beast?” 30 Therefore thus says the Lord concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah: (B)He shall have none (C)to sit on the throne of David, (D)and his dead body shall be cast out to the heat by day and the frost by night. 31 (E)And I will punish him and his offspring and his servants for their iniquity. I will bring upon them and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem and upon the people of Judah all the disaster that I have pronounced against them, but they would not hear.’”

Isaiah 28:17-22
English Standard Version
17 And I will make justice (A)the line,
and righteousness (B)the plumb line;
and hail will sweep away the refuge of lies,
and waters will overwhelm the shelter.”
18 Then (C)your covenant with death will be annulled,
and your agreement with Sheol will not stand;
when the overwhelming scourge passes through,
you will be beaten down by it.
19 As often as it passes through it will take you;
(D)for morning by morning it will pass through,
by day and by night;
and it will be (E)sheer terror to understand the message.
20 For the bed is too short to stretch oneself on,
and the covering too narrow to wrap oneself in.
21 For the Lord will rise up (F)as on Mount Perazim;
(G)as in the Valley of (H)Gibeon he will be roused;
to do his deed—strange is his deed!
and to work his work—alien is his work!
22 Now therefore do not (I)scoff,
lest your bonds be made strong;
for I have heard (J)a decree of destruction
from the Lord God of hosts against the whole land.
Proverbs 29:1
English Standard Version
29 (A)He who is often reproved, yet stiffens his neck,
will suddenly be (B)broken (C)beyond healing.

Deuteronomy 29:19-21
English Standard Version
19 one who, when he hears the words of this sworn covenant, blesses himself in his heart, saying, ‘I shall be safe, though I walk in the stubbornness of my heart.’ This will lead to the sweeping away of moist and dry alike. 20 The Lord will not be willing to forgive him, but rather (A)the anger of the Lord and (B)his jealousy will smoke against that man, and the curses written in this book will settle upon him, and the Lord (C)will blot out his name from under heaven. 21 And the Lord will single him out from all the tribes of Israel for calamity, in accordance with all the curses of the covenant written in this Book of the Law.
