Jeremiah 7:22
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For when I brought your fathers out of the land of Egypt, I did not merely command them about burnt offerings and sacrifices,
In context
20 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: Behold, My anger and My fury will be poured out on this place, on man and beast, on the trees of the field and the produce of the land, and it will burn and not be extinguished.
21 This is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Add your burnt offerings to your other sacrifices and eat the meat yourselves!
22 For when I brought your fathers out of the land of Egypt, I did not merely command them about burnt offerings and sacrifices,
23 but this is what I commanded them: Obey Me, and I will be your God, and you will be My people. You must walk in all the ways I have commanded you, so that it may go well with you.
24 Yet they did not listen or incline their ear, but they followed the stubborn inclinations of their own evil hearts. They went backward and not forward.
