But if you will not listen to me to consecrate the Sabbath day, to not carry a burden when entering at the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day; then I will kindle a fire in its gates, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.

But if you turn back and have forsaken My statutes and My commandments which I have set before you, and have gone and served other gods, and bowed down to them,

Then they will answer, Because they have forsaken Jehovah the God of their fathers, who brought them out of the land of Egypt, and taken hold on other gods, and bowed down to them and served them; therefore He has brought all this evil upon them.

But if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured with the sword; for the mouth of Jehovah has spoken.

and said: By Myself I have sworn, says Jehovah, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only one;

Say to them, As I live, says Jehovah, just as you have spoken in My ears, so I will do to you:

Except for Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun, you shall by no means enter the land which I raised My hand and swore to make you dwell there.

For I raise My hand to the heavens, and say, As I live forever,

I will make My arrows drunk with blood, and My sword shall devour flesh, with the blood of the slain and the captives, from the heads of the commanders of the enemy.

So I swore in My wrath, They shall not enter into My rest.

The Lord Jehovah has sworn by Himself, declares Jehovah the God of Hosts: I abhor the pride of Jacob, and hate his palaces; therefore I will deliver up the city and its fullness.

Jehovah has sworn by the Pride of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their works.

Shall not the land tremble for this, and everyone who dwells in it mourn? And all of it shall rise like the light, and it shall overflow and sink like the river of Egypt.

And to whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but to those who did not obey?

For when God made a promise to Abraham, because He had no one greater to swear by, He swore by Himself,

Thus God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, pledged it by an oath,

And now, because you have done all these works, says Jehovah, and I spoke to you, rising up early and speaking, but you did not hear; and I called you, but you did not answer;

therefore I will do to this house, which is called by My name, in which you trust, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.

then I will make this house like Shiloh, and will make this city a curse to all the nations of the earth.

And it happened when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking all that Jehovah had commanded him to speak to all the people, that the priests and the prophets and all the people took him, saying, You shall die the death!

And the Chaldeans burned the king's house and the houses of the people, with fire, and broke down the walls of Jerusalem.

Therefore, on account of you, Zion shall be plowed as a field, and Jerusalem shall become heaps, and the mountain of the house like the high places of the forest.
