Jeremiah 17:20-23

New King James Version

²⁰ and say to them, ^(A)‘Hear the word of the Lord, you kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, who enter by these gates. ²¹ Thus says the Lord: ^(B)“Take heed to yourselves, and bear no burden on the Sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem; ²² nor carry a burden out of your houses on the Sabbath day, nor do any work, but hallow the Sabbath day, as I ^(C)commanded your fathers. ^23 (D)But they did not obey nor incline their ear, but ^[a]made their neck stiff, that they might not hear nor receive instruction.
