Jeremiah 7:8-10

Expanded Bible

⁸ “‘But look, you ·are trusting [have confidence in] ·lies [^Lfalse words], which is useless. ⁹ Will you steal and murder and be guilty of adultery? Will you falsely ·accuse other people [take oaths; swear]? Will you ·burn incense [make offerings] to the god Baal and ·follow [^Lgo after] other gods you have not known? ¹⁰ If you do that, do you think you can come before me and stand in this ·place [^Lhouse] ·where I have chosen to be worshiped [^Lwhich is called by my name]? Do you think you can say, “We are safe!” when you do all these ·hateful things [abominations]?
