*
Thus said the LORD to me ;
Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people ,
by which the kings of Judah come in ,
and by which they go out ,
and in all the gates of Jerusalem ;
*
And say to them ,
Hear ye the word of the LORD ,
ye kings of Judah ,
and all Judah ,
and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem ,
that enter by these gates :
*
Thus saith the LORD ;
Take heed to yourselves ,
and bear no burden on the sabbath day ,
nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem ;
*
Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the sabbath day ,
neither do ye any work ,
but hallow ye the sabbath day ,
as I commanded your fathers .
*
But they obeyed not ,
neither inclined their ear ,
but made their neck stiff ,
that they might not hear ,
nor receive instruction .
*
And it shall come to pass ,
if ye diligently hearken to me ,
saith the LORD ,
to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath day ,
but hallow the sabbath day ,
to do no work therein ;
*
Then shall there enter into the gates of this city kings and princes sitting upon the throne of David ,
riding in chariots and on horses ,
they and their princes ,
the men of Judah ,
and the inhabitants of Jerusalem :
and this city shall remain for ever .
*
And they shall come from the cities of Judah ,
and from the places about Jerusalem ,
and from the land of Benjamin ,
and from the plain ,
and from the mountains ,
and from the south ,
bringing burnt-offerings ,
and sacrifices ,
and meat-offerings ,
and incense ,
and bringing sacrifices of praise ,
to the house of the LORD .
*
But if ye will not hearken to me to hallow the sabbath day ,
and not to bear a burden ,
even entering at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day ;
then will I kindle a fire in its gates ,
and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem ,
and it shall not be quenched .
