Jeremiah 7:3-11

Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Jeremiah 7:3-11

3Thus says the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel: Correct your ways and deeds, and I will let you live in this place.
4Do not trust in deceptive words, chanting:
‘This is the temple of the LORD,
the temple of the LORD,
the temple of the LORD.’
5For if you really correct your ways and deeds, if you act justly toward one another,
6if you no longer oppress the foreigner and the fatherless and the widow, and if you no longer shed innocent blood in this place or follow other gods to your own harm,
7then I will let you live in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers forever and ever.
8But look, you keep trusting in deceptive words to no avail.
9Will you steal and murder, commit adultery and perjury, burn incense to Baal, and follow other gods that you have not known,
10and then come and stand before Me in this house, which bears My Name, and say, ‘We are delivered, so we can continue with all these abominations’?
11Has this house, which bears My Name, become a den of robbers in your sight? Yes, I too have seen it, declares the LORD.
