Jeremiah 17:23 in Context — Jeremiah 17
21 Assim diz o SENHOR: Guardai-vos por vossas vidas, e não tragais carga no dia do sábado, para fazê-las entrar pelas portas de Jerusalém;
22 Nem tireis carga de vossas casas no dia do sábado, nem façais obra alguma; ao invés disso, santificai o dia do sábado, assim como mandei a vossos pais;
23 Porém eles não deram ouvidos, nem escutaram; ao invés disso, tornaram-se teimosos, ) para não ouvirem, nem receberem correção.
24 Será, pois, se vós me ouvirdes cuidadosamente, diz o SENHOR, não fazendo entrar carga pelas portas desta cidade no dia do sábado, e santificardes o dia do sábado, não fazendo nele nenhuma obra;
25 Então entrarão pelas portas desta cidade reis e os príncipes que se sentem sobre o trono de Davi, [montados] em carros e em cavalos; eles e seus príncipes, e os homens de Judá, e os moradores de Jerusalém; e esta cidade será habitada para sempre.
