Jeremiah 17:19-21
1599 Geneva Bible
19 Thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go and stand in the [a]gate of the children of the people, whereby the Kings of Judah come in, and by the which they go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem,
20 And say unto them, Hear the word of the Lord, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates.
21 Thus saith the Lord, Take heed to your souls, and bear no burden in the [b]Sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem.
