Jeremiah 11:8-10

Expanded Bible

⁸ But your ·ancestors [fathers] did not ·listen [obey] or ·pay attention [^Lbend their ear] to me. They ·were stubborn and did what their own evil hearts wanted [^Lwalked in the stubborness of their evil hearts]. So I made all the ·curses [^Lwords] of this ·agreement [covenant; treaty] come upon them [Deut. 28:15–68]. I commanded them to obey the ·agreement [covenant; agreement], but they did not.’”

⁹ Then the Lord said to me, “I know the people of Judah and those living in Jerusalem have made ·secret plans [a conspiracy]. ¹⁰ They have ·gone back [returned] to the ·same sins their ancestors did [iniquity of their fathers of old]. ·Their ancestors [^LThey] refused to listen to my ·message [^Lwords] and ·followed and worshiped [^Lwent after and served] other gods instead [Ex. 20:3]. The ·families [^Lhouse] of Israel and [^Lthe house of] Judah have broken the ·agreement [covenant; treaty] I ·made [^Lcut] with their ·ancestors [fathers].
