Jeremiah 7:6-18 English Standard Version (ESV)

if you (A)do not oppress the sojourner, the fatherless, or the widow, (B)or shed innocent blood in this place, (C)and if you do not go after other gods to your own harm, (D)then I will let you dwell in this place, (E)in the land that I gave of old to your fathers forever.

“Behold, you trust in deceptive words to no avail. (F)Will you steal, murder, commit adultery, (G)swear falsely, (H)make offerings to Baal, (I)and go after other gods that you have not known, 10 and then come and stand before me in this house, (J)which is called by my name, and say, ‘We are delivered!’—only to go on doing all these abominations? 11 (K)Has this house, (L)which is called by my name, (M)become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, I myself have seen it, declares the Lord. 12 Go now to (N)my place that was in Shiloh, (O)where I made my name dwell at first, and (P)see what I did to it because of the evil of my people Israel. 13 And now, because you have done all these things, declares the Lord, and (Q)when I spoke to you persistently you did not listen, and (R)when I called you, you did not answer, 14 therefore I will do to (S)the house (T)that is called by my name, and in which you trust, and to the place that I gave to you and to your fathers, (U)as I did to Shiloh. 15 (V)And I will cast you out of my sight, (W)as I cast out all your kinsmen, all the offspring of (X)Ephraim.

16 “As for you, (Y)do not pray for this people, or lift up a cry or prayer for them, and do not intercede with me, for I will not hear you. 17 Do you not see what they are doing in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem? 18 The children gather wood, the fathers kindle fire, (Z)and the women knead dough, to (AA)make cakes for (AB)the queen of heaven. And (AC)they pour out drink offerings to other gods, (AD)to provoke me to anger.
