Jeremiah 6:17-19

Modern English Version

¹⁷ Also I set watchmen over you, saying,
    “Listen to the sound of the trumpet.”
    But they said, “We will not listen.”
¹⁸ Therefore hear, O nations,
    and know, O congregation,
    what is among them.
¹⁹ Hear, O earth.
    I will bring calamity on this people,
    even the fruit of their thoughts,
because they have not listened to My words,
    nor to My law, but rejected it.
