Jeremiah 17:19–27

19 Thus said the Lord unto me; Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, whereby cthe kings of Judah come in, and by the which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem; 20 And say unto them, dHear ye the word of the Lord, cye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates: 21 Thus saith the Lord; Take heed to yourselves, and ebear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem; 22 Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the sabbath day, fneither do ye any work, but ffhallow ye the sabbath day, gas I commanded your fathers. 23 hBut they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but imade their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor kreceive instruction. 24 And it shall come to pass, if ye diligently hearken unto me, saith the Lord, eto bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day, but fhallow the sabbath day, to do no work therein; 25 lThen shall there enter into the gates of this city kings and princes sitting upon the throne of David, riding in chariots and mon horses, they, and their princes, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and this city shall remain for ever. 26 And they shall come from nthe cities of Judah, and from nothe places about Jerusalem, and from nthe land of Benjamin, and from nopthe plain, and from nthe mountains, and from noqthe south, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and meat offerings, and incense, and bringing rsacrifices of praise, unto the house of the Lord. 27 But if ye will not hearken unto me fto hallow the sabbath day, and not eto bear a burden, even entering in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day; then swill I kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and tit shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and uit shall not be quenched.
