The Broken Covenant

⁷ For I strongly warned your ancestors when I brought them out of the land of Egypt until today, warning them time and time again, ‘Obey My voice.’ ⁸ Yet they would not obey or pay attention; each one followed the stubbornness of his evil heart. So I brought on them all the curses of this covenant, because they had not done what I commanded them to do.” ⁹ The Lord said to me, “A conspiracy has been discovered among the men of Judah and the residents of Jerusalem.
