Jeremiah 7:8 Context
6If ye oppresse not the stranger, the fatherlesse and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, neither walke after other gods to your hurt: 7Then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gaue to your fathers, for euer and euer. 8¶ Behold, ye trust in lying words, that cannot profit. 9Will ye steale, murther, and commit adulterie, and sweare falsly, and burne incense vnto Baal, and walke after other gods, whom ye know not; 10And come and stand before me in this house, which is called by my Name, and say, We are deliuered, to do all these abominations?
