NET Bible
"If you stop doing these things, I will allow you to continue to live in this land which I gave to your ancestors as a lasting possession."
— Jeremiah 7:7, NET Bible
“Then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, for ever and ever.”
“then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from of old even for evermore. ”
“then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from of old even forevermore.”
“I will dwell with you in this place: in the land, which I gave to your fathers from the beginning and for evermore.”
“Then I will let you go on living in this place, in the land which I gave to your fathers in the past and for ever.”
“Then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, for ever and ever.”
Stop putting your confidence in the false belief that says,“We are safe! The temple of the LORD is here! The temple of the LORD is here! The temple of the LORD is here!”
You must change the way you have been living and do what is right. You must treat one another fairly.
Stop oppressing resident foreigners who live in your land, children who have lost their fathers, and women who have lost their husbands. Stop killing innocent people in this land. Stop paying allegiance to other gods. That will only bring about your ruin.
If you stop doing these things, I will allow you to continue to live in this land which I gave to your ancestors as a lasting possession.
“‘But just look at you! You are putting your confidence in a false belief that will not deliver you.
You steal. You murder. You commit adultery. You lie when you swear on oath. You sacrifice to the god Baal. You pay allegiance to other gods whom you have not previously known.
Then you come and stand in my presence in this temple I have claimed as my own and say,“We are safe!” You think you are so safe that you go on doing all those hateful sins!
