Jeremiah 6:20-22

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁰ “For what purpose do you bring Me incense from Sheba, and sweet calamus from a far country? Your Burnt Offerings are not pleasant, nor your sacrifices sweet, to Me.”

²¹ Therefore, thus says 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 says the LORD: “Behold, a people comes from the north country, and a great nation shall arise from the sides of the Earth.
