Jeremiah 7:8 in Context — Jeremiah 7

6 Ni oprimiereis al peregrino, al huérfano, y á la viuda, ni en este lugar derramareis la sangre inocente, ni anduviereis en pos de dioses ajenos para mal vuestro;

7 Os haré morar en este lugar, en la tierra que dí á vuestros padres para siempre.

8 He aquí vosotros os confiáis en palabras de mentira, que no aprovechan.

9 ¿Hurtando, matando, y adulterando, y jurando falso, é incensando á Baal, y andando tras dioses extraños que no conocisteis,

10 Vendréis y os pondréis delante de mí en esta casa sobre la cual es invocado mi nombre, y diréis: Librados somos: para hacer todas estas abominaciones?
