Jeremiah 6:19-21
English Standard Version
Jeremiah 6:19-21
English Standard Version
19 Hear, O earth; behold, I am bringing disaster upon this people,
(A)the fruit of their devices,
because they have not paid attention to my words;
and as for my law, they have rejected it.
20 (B)What use to me is (C)frankincense that comes from (D)Sheba,
or sweet cane from a distant land?
(E)Your burnt offerings are not acceptable,
nor your sacrifices pleasing to me.
21 Therefore thus says the Lord:
(F)‘Behold, I will lay before this people
stumbling blocks against which they shall stumble;
fathers and sons together,
neighbor and friend shall perish.’”

Jeremiah 6:19-21
New International Version
19 Hear, you earth:(A)
I am bringing disaster(B) on this people,
the fruit of their schemes,(C)
because they have not listened to my words(D)
and have rejected my law.(E)
20 What do I care about incense from Sheba(F)
or sweet calamus(G) from a distant land?
Your burnt offerings are not acceptable;(H)
your sacrifices(I) do not please me.”(J)
21 Therefore this is what the Lord says:
“I will put obstacles before this people.
Parents and children alike will stumble(K) over them;
neighbors and friends will perish.”
