Jeremiah 7:27-29
Legacy Standard Bible
27 “You shall (A)speak all these words to them, but they will not listen to you; and you shall call to them, but they will (B)not answer you. 28 You shall say to them, ‘This is the nation that (C)did not listen to the voice of Yahweh their God or receive discipline; [a](D)truth has perished and has been cut off from their mouth.
29 (E)Cut off [b]your hair and cast it away,
And (F)lift up a funeral lamentation on the bare heights;
For Yahweh has (G)rejected and abandoned
The generation of His wrath.’

A Lament for Disobedient Judah
27 “When you speak all these things to them, they will not listen to you. When you call to them, they will not answer you. 28 Therefore, declare to them, ‘This is the nation that would not listen to the Lord their God and would not accept discipline. Truth[a] has perished—it has disappeared from their mouths. 29 Cut off the hair of your sacred vow[b](A) and throw it away. Raise up a dirge on the barren heights,(B) for the Lord has rejected and abandoned the generation under his wrath.’(C)
