Jeremiah 2:2
2:2 “Go and declare in the hearing of the people of Jerusalem:
‘This is what the
Lord says: “I have fond memories of you,
how devoted you were to me in your early years.
I remember how you loved me like a new bride; you followed me through the wilderness, through a land that had never been planted.
Jeremiah 6:10

“Who would listen
if I spoke to them and warned them?
Their ears are so closed
that they cannot hear!
Indeed, what the Lord says is offensive to them.
They do not like it at all.
Jeremiah 11:8

Jeremiah 19:3
19:3 Say, ‘Listen to what the
Lord says, you kings of Judah and citizens of Jerusalem!
The
Lord God of Israel who rules over all
says, “I will bring a disaster on this place
that will make the ears of everyone who hears about it ring!
Jeremiah 26:11

“This man should be condemned to die
because he prophesied against this city. You have heard him do so
with your own ears.”
Jeremiah 26:15
26:15 But you should take careful note of this: If you put me to death, you will bring on yourselves and this city and those who live in it the guilt of murdering an innocent man. For the
Lord has sent me to speak all this where you can hear it. That is the truth!”
Jeremiah 34:14

But your ancestors did not obey me or pay any attention to me.
Jeremiah 36:10
36:10 At that time Baruch went into the temple of the
Lord. He stood in the entrance of the room of Gemariah the son of Shaphan who had been the royal secretary.
That room was in the upper court
near the entrance of the New Gate.
There, where all the people could hear him, he read from the scroll what Jeremiah had said.
