And they rejected His statutes and His covenant that He made with their fathers, and His testimonies that He testified against them, and went after the vain thing, and became vain, and after the nations that were around them, of whom Jehovah had commanded them not to act like them.
But they mocked the messengers of God, and despised His words, and scoffed at His prophets until the wrath of Jehovah went up against His people, until there was no healing.
And now if listening you will listen to My voice, and will keep My covenant, you shall become a special possession to Me above all the nations, for all the earth is Mine.
They have turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, who refused to hear My Word. And they went after other gods to serve them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken My covenant which I cut with their fathers.
not according to the covenant that I cut with their fathers in the day I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, which covenant of Mine they broke, although I was a husband to them, a statement of Jehovah.
Hear, O earth, behold, I will bring evil on this people, the fruit of their thoughts; for they have not paid attention to My words; and My Law, they also rejected it.
For the land shall be forsaken by them, and shall satisfy for its sabbaths, in the desolation without them. And they shall accept their guilt for their iniquity, because, even because, they have rejected My judgments, and their soul has loathed My statutes.
If you will not hear, and if you will not set it on your heart to give glory to My name, says Jehovah of Hosts, even I will send the curse on you, and I will curse your blessings. And indeed, I have cursed it, because you are not setting it on your heart.
“Behold, the despisers,” “and marvel,” “and perish, because I work a work in your days,” a work which you will “not believe, not even if someone fully declares it to you,” not one. Hab. 1:5
And Jehovah said to Moses, Behold, you shall lie with your fathers, and this people shall rise up and go fornicating after the gods of the foreigners of the land into which they are going, and they shall forsake Me and shall break My covenant which I made with it.
not according to the covenant which I made with their fathers in the day of My taking hold of their hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they did not continue in My covenant, and I cared not for them, says the Lord.
But if you will not listen to the voice of Jehovah, and you rebel against the mouth of Jehovah, even the hand of Jehovah shall be against you and against your fathers.
