Jeremiah 6:20-22

GOD’S WORD Translation

²⁰ Incense that comes from Sheba is no good to me.
Sugar cane that comes from a distant land is no good to me.
I won’t accept your burnt offerings.
I’m not pleased with your sacrifices.

I’m going to lay stumbling blocks in front of these people.
Parents and children will stumble over them.
Neighbors and their friends will die.

An army is going to come from the north.
A great nation is preparing itself in the distant parts of the earth.
