Jeremiah 7:4-7 ▼

4 Do not trust in deceptive words, saying, ‘This is the temple of the LORD, the temple of the LORD, the temple of the LORD.’

5 For if you truly amend your ways and your deeds, if you truly practice justice between a person and his neighbor,

6 if you do not oppress the stranger, the orphan, or the widow, and do not shed innocent blood in this place, nor follow other gods to your own ruin,

7 then I will let you live in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers forever and ever.
