Jeremiah 17:24-27 ▼

24 And it will come to pass, if you⁺ listen carefully to Me, a declaration of YHWH, and do not bring in a load through the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, and consecrate the Sabbath day to not do any work on it,

25 then will come into the gates of this city kings and princes, sitting on the throne of David, riding in chariots and on horses, they and their princes, with the men of Judah and those dwelling in Jerusalem; and this city will abide forever.

26 They will come from the cities of Judah, and from from the places around Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the Shephelah and the hill country, and from the Negev, bringing burnt offerings, and sacrifices, and grain offerings, and frankincense, and bringing thank offerings to the house of YHWH.

27 And if you⁺ will not listen to Me to consecrate the Sabbath day and not to carry a load and enter the gates of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day, then I will kindle a fire in its gates, and it will consume the citadels of Jerusalem, and it will not be quenched.’”
