Jeremiah 11:3-8

Jeremiah 11:3-8 CSB

Tell them, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: “Let a curse be on the man who does not obey the words of this covenant,  which I commanded your ancestors when I brought them out of the land of Egypt,  out of the iron furnace.”  I declared, “Obey me, and do everything that I command you, and you will be my people, and I will be your God,”  in order to establish the oath I swore to your ancestors,  to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is today.’ ” I answered, “Amen, LORD.”  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.’ For I strongly warned your ancestors when I brought them out of the land of Egypt until today, warning them time and time again,  , ‘Obey me.’ Yet they would not obey or pay attention; each one followed the stubbornness of his evil heart.  So I brought on them all the curses of this covenant, because they had not done what I commanded them to do.”
