Jeremiah 13:10

They follow the stubborn inclinations of their own hearts and pay allegiance
to other gods by worshiping and serving them. So
they will become just like these linen shorts which are good for nothing.
Jeremiah 40:9
40:9 Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam and grandson of Shaphan, took an oath so as to give them and their troops some assurance of safety.

Settle down in the land and submit to the king of Babylon. Then things will go well for you.
Jeremiah 15:19
15:19 Because of this, the Lord said,
“You must repent of such words and thoughts!
If you do, I will restore you to the privilege of serving me.
If you say what is worthwhile instead of what is worthless,
I will again allow you to be my spokesman.
They must become as you have been.
You must not become like them.
Jeremiah 34:14
34:14 “Every seven years each of you must free any fellow Hebrews who have sold themselves to you. After they have served you for six years, you shall set them free.”
But your ancestors did not obey me or pay any attention to me.
