Jeremiah 11:6-8
Holman Christian Standard Bible
6 The Lord said to me, “Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem: Obey the words of this covenant and carry them out. 7 For I strongly warned your ancestors when I brought them out of the land of Egypt until today, warning them time and time again,[a](A) ‘Obey My voice.’ 8 Yet they would not obey or pay attention; each one followed the stubbornness of his evil heart.(B) So I brought on them all the curses of this covenant, because they had not done what I commanded them to do.”

Jeremiah 11:6-8
Lexham English Bible
6 And Yahweh said to me, “Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying,[a] ‘Hear the words of this covenant and do them, 7 for I solemnly admonished your ancestors[b] in the day of my leading them out from the land of Egypt and up to this day, admonishing persistently,[c] saying,[d] “Obey my voice.” 8 But they did not obey and they did not incline their ear. Instead each one walked in the stubbornness of his[e] evil heart. Therefore, I brought on them all the words of this covenant which I commanded them[f] to do, and they did not do it.’”[g]
