Jeremiah 6:16-18

International Children’s Bible

“Stand where the roads cross and look.
    Ask where the old way is.
Ask where the good way is, and walk on it.
    If you do, you will find rest for yourselves.
    But you have said, ‘We will not walk on the good way!’
¹⁷ I chose watchmen to watch over you.
    I told you, ‘Listen for the sound of the war trumpet!’
    But you said, ‘We will not listen.’
¹⁸ So listen, all you nations.
    Pay attention, you witnesses.
    Watch what I will do to the people of Judah.
