3It may be that they will give ear, and that every man will be turned from his evil way, so that my purpose of sending evil on them because of the evil of their doings may be changed.
4And you are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: If you do not give ear to me and go in the way of my law which I have put before you,
5And give ear to the words of my servants the prophets whom I send to you, getting up early and sending them, though you gave no attention;
6Then I will make this house like Shiloh, and will make this town a curse to all the nations of the earth.
7And in the hearing of the priests and the prophets and all the people, Jeremiah said these words in the house of the Lord.
8Now, when Jeremiah had come to the end of saying everything the Lord had given him orders to say to all the people, the priests and the prophets and all the people took him by force, saying, Death will certainly be your fate.
9Why have you said in the name of the Lord, This house will be like Shiloh, and this land a waste with no one living in it? And all the people had come together to Jeremiah in the house of the Lord.
