Jeremiah 7:12-16

Good News Translation

^12 (A)Go to Shiloh,^[a] the first place where I chose to be worshiped, and see what I did to it because of the sins of my people Israel. ¹³ You have committed all these sins, and even though I spoke to you over and over again, you refused to listen. You would not answer when I called you. ¹⁴ And so, what I did to Shiloh I will do to this Temple of mine, in which you trust. Here in this place that I gave to your ancestors and you, I will do the same thing that I did to Shiloh. ¹⁵ I will drive you out of my sight as I drove out your relatives, the people of Israel. I, the Lord, have spoken.”

The People's Disobedience

¹⁶ The Lord said, “Jeremiah, do not pray for these people. Do not cry or pray on their behalf; do not plead with me, for I will not listen to you.
