2 Thus hath the Lord said: Stand in the court of the Lord’s house and speak unto all the cities of Judah, which come to worship in the Lord’s house, all the words that I commanded thee to speak unto them; diminish not a word:
3 peradventure they will hearken and turn each man from his evil way, that I may repent of the evil, which I purpose to do unto them because of the evil of their doings.
4 And thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath the Lord said: If ye will not hearken to me, to walk in my law, which I have set before you,
5 to hearken to the words of my slaves the prophets, whom I send unto you, rising up early and sending them, unto whom ye have not hearkened,
6 then I will make this house like Shiloh and will give this city as a curse to all the Gentiles of the earth.
7 And the priests, the prophets, and all the people heard Jeremiah speaking these words in the house of the Lord.
8 Now it came to pass, when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking all that the Lord had commanded him to speak unto all the people that the priests and the prophets and all the people took him, saying, Thou shalt surely die.
