24:006:018 Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O congregation, what is
           among them.

24:006:019 Hear, O earth:  behold, I will bring evil upon this people,
           even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not
           hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it.

24:006:020 To what purpose cometh there to me incense from Sheba, and the
           sweet cane from a far country? your burnt offerings are not
           acceptable, nor your sacrifices sweet unto me.

24:006:021 Therefore thus saith the lord, Behold, I will lay
           stumblingblocks before this people, and the fathers and the
           sons together shall fall upon them; the neighbour and his
           friend shall perish.

24:006:022 Thus saith the lord, Behold, a people cometh from the north
           country, and a great nation shall be raised from the sides of
           the earth.

24:006:023 They shall lay hold on bow and spear; they are cruel, and have
           no mercy; their voice roareth like the sea; and they ride upon
           horses, set in array as men for war against thee, O daughter
           of Zion.

24:006:024 We have heard the fame thereof:  our hands wax feeble:  anguish
           hath taken hold of us, and pain, as of a woman in travail.

24:006:025 Go not forth into the field, nor walk by the way; for the
           sword of the enemy and fear is on every side.

24:006:026 O daughter of my people, gird thee with sackcloth, and wallow
           thyself in ashes:  make thee mourning, as for an only son, most
           bitter lamentation:  for the spoiler shall suddenly come upon
           us.

24:006:027 I have set thee for a tower and a fortress among my people,
           that thou mayest know and try their way.

24:006:028 They are all grievous revolters, walking with slanders:  they
           are brass and iron; they are all corrupters.

24:006:029 The bellows are burned, the lead is consumed of the fire; the
           founder melteth in vain:  for the wicked are not plucked away.

24:006:030 Reprobate silver shall men call them, because the lord hath
           rejected them.

24:007:001 The word that came to Jeremiah from the lord, saying,

24:007:002 Stand in the gate of the LORD’s house, and proclaim there this
           word, and say, Hear the word of the lord, all ye of Judah,
           that enter in at these gates to worship the lord.

24:007:003 Thus saith the lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your
           ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this
           place.

24:007:004 Trust ye not in lying words, saying, The temple of the lord,
           The temple of the lord, The temple of the lord, are these.
