<span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/jeremiah/11-3.htm"><b>3</b></a></span>and say to them, ‘Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, “Cursed is the man who does not heed the words of this covenant <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/jeremiah/11-4.htm"><b>4</b></a></span>which I commanded your forefathers in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, from the iron furnace, saying, ‘Listen to My voice, and do according to all which I command you; so you shall be My people, and I will be your God,’ <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/jeremiah/11-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>in order to confirm the oath which I swore to your forefathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as <i>it is</i> this day.”’” Then I answered and said, “Amen, O LORD.” <p> <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/jeremiah/11-6.htm"><b>6</b></a></span>And the LORD said to me, “Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, ‘Hear the words of this covenant and do them. <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/jeremiah/11-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>‘For I solemnly warned your fathers in the day that I brought them up from the land of Egypt, even to this day, warning persistently, saying, “Listen to My voice.” <span class="reftext"><a href="http://bible.cc/jeremiah/11-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>‘Yet they did not obey or incline their ear, but walked, each one, in the stubbornness of his evil heart;
