Jeremiah 17:23-25

New Catholic Bible

²³ However, they did not listen or pay attention; rather, they stiffened their necks and would not heed my warnings or accept instruction.

²⁴ But if you listen carefully to me, says the Lord, and carry no burden through the gates of this city on the Sabbath day, keeping the Sabbath holy and doing no work on that day, ²⁵ then kings will come through the gates of this city, kings who will sit on the throne of David. They will come riding in chariots or on horseback, escorted by their officials, the people of Judah, and the citizens of Jerusalem. This city will be inhabited forever.
