Jeremiah 11:8-10

International Children’s Bible

⁸ But your ancestors did not listen to me. They were stubborn and did what their own evil hearts wanted. The agreement says curses will come upon them if they don’t obey it. So I made all those curses come upon them! I commanded them to obey the 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. ¹⁰ They are doing the same sins their ancestors did! Their ancestors refused to listen to my message. They followed and worshiped other gods. The families of Israel and Judah have broken the agreement I made with their ancestors.
