Jeremiah 6:16-19 - Heartlight

¹⁶This is what the LORD says:

“Stand at the crossroads and look.

Ask for the ancient paths: ‘Where is the good way?’

Then walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls.

But they said, ‘We will not walk in it!’

¹⁷I appointed watchmen over you and said,

‘Listen for the sound of the ram’s horn.’

But they answered, ‘We will not listen!’

¹⁸Therefore hear, O nations,

and learn, O congregations,

what will happen to them.

¹⁹Hear, O earth! I am bringing disaster on this people,

the fruit of their own schemes,

because they have paid no attention to My word

and have rejected My instruction.

— Jeremiah 6:16-19
