Jeremiah 6:18-20

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁸ Therefore hear, O nations,
    and know, O congregation, what will happen to them.
¹⁹ Hear, O earth; I am going to bring disaster on this people,
    the fruit of their schemes,
because they have not given heed to my words;
    and as for my teaching, they have rejected it.
²⁰ Of what use to me is frankincense that comes from Sheba,
    or sweet cane from a distant land?
Your burnt-offerings are not acceptable,
    nor are your sacrifices pleasing to me.
