Jeremiah 11:3-5

New Catholic Bible

³ Say to them: Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Cursed be anyone who does not observe the terms of this covenant ⁴ which I enjoined upon your ancestors when I brought them forth from the land of Egypt, from that iron foundry, saying: If you listen to my voice and do everything I command you, then you will be my people, and I will be your God. ⁵ I will thus fulfill the oath that I swore to your ancestors, when I pledged to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, the land you now possess. Then I answered, “So be it, Lord.”
