3 Dize-lhes, pois: Assim diz o SENHOR, Deus de Israel: Maldito o homem que não ouvir as palavras deste pacto,

4 Que mandei a vossos pais no dia que os tirei da terra do Egito, do forno de ferro, dizendo: Ouvi a minha voz, e as fazei conforme a tudo quanto eu vos mando; então vós sereis meu povo, e eu serei vosso Deus;

5 Para que eu confirme o juramento que fiz a vossos pais, que lhes daria uma terra em que mana leite e mel, tal como hoje.E eu respondi, e disse: Amém, SENHOR!

6 E disse-me o SENHOR: Proclama todas estas palavras nas cidades de Judá e nas ruas de Jerusalém, dizendo: Ouvi as palavras deste pacto, e praticai-as;

7 Porque insistentemente adverti a vossos pais o dia que eu os tirei da terra do Egito até o dia de hoje, repetidamente advertindo, dizendo: Ouvi minha voz.
