Jeremiah 26:5Amplified Bible - Classic EditionAnd to hear and obey the words of My servants the prophets, whom I have sent to you urgently and persistently–though you have not listened and obeyed– See the chapter |
I have sent also to you all My servants the prophets earnestly and persistently, saying, Return now every man from his evil way and amend your doings and go not after other gods to serve them; and then you shall dwell in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers. But you did not submit and consent to Me or listen to and obey Me.
And the heathen (the nations) raged, but Your wrath (retribution, indignation) came, the time when the dead will be judged and Your servants the prophets and saints rewarded–and those who revere (fear) Your name, both low and high and small and great–and [the time] for destroying the corrupters of the earth. [Ps. 2:1.]
