Jeremiah 7:3-12

ACV(i) 3 Thus says LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place. 4 Trust ye not in lying words, saying, The temple of LORD, the temple of LORD, the temple of LORD, are these. 5 For if ye thoroughly amend your ways and your doings, if ye thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbor, 6 if ye do not oppress the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, nor walk after other gods to your own hurt, 7 then I will cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers from of old even for evermore. 8 Behold, ye trust in lying words, that cannot profit. 9 Will ye steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods that ye have not known, 10 and then come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my name, and say, We are delivered, that ye may do all these abominations? 11 Has this house, which is called by my name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, I, even I, have seen it, says LORD. 12 But go ye now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I caused my name to dwell at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.
