Jeremiah 6:20-22
1599 Geneva Bible
20 To what purpose bringest thou me [a]incense from Sheba, and sweet calamus from a far country? Your burnt offerings are not pleasant, nor your sacrifices sweet unto me.
21 Therefore thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will lay stumbling blocks before this people, and the fathers and the sons together shall fall upon them: the neighbor and his friend shall perish.
22 Thus saith the Lord, Behold, a people cometh from the [b]North country, and a great nation shall arise from the sides of the earth.
