1 The word that came to Jeremiah from YHWH, saying: 2 “Stand in the gate of the house of YHWH, and proclaim there this word, and say: Hear the word of YHWH, all of Judah who enter these gates to worship before YHWH! 3 Thus says YHWH of Hosts, the God of Israel: Amend your⁺ ways and your⁺ deeds, and I will make you⁺ dwell in this place. 4 Do not trust in words of deception, saying, ‘The temple of YHWH, the temple of YHWH, the temple of YHWH are they.’ 5 For if you⁺ thoroughly amend your⁺ ways and your⁺ deeds; if you⁺ thoroughly do justice between a man and between his neighbor; 6 if the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, you would not oppress, and innocent blood you would not pour out in this place, and you⁺ would not walk, after other gods to your⁺ own harm, 7 then I will make you⁺ dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your⁺ fathers, from forever and even to forever.
