Jeremiah 6:16-18

International Standard Version

“Stand beside the roads and watch.
    Ask for the ancient paths, where the good way is.
Walk in it and find rest for yourselves.
    But they said, ‘We won’t walk in it!’^[a]
17 I appointed watchmen over you.
    Listen for the sound of the trumpet.
But they said, ‘We won’t listen!’
¹⁸ Therefore, hear, nations,
    and know, congregation,
        what will happen to them.^[b]
