Jeremiah 7:21-23

International Children’s Bible

Obedience Is More than Sacrifice

²¹ “‘This is what the Lord of heaven’s armies, the God of Israel, says: Go and offer as many burnt offerings and sacrifices as you want! Eat the meat of those sacrifices yourselves! ²² I brought your ancestors out of Egypt. I spoke to them. But I did not give them commands only about burnt offerings and sacrifices. ²³ I also gave them this command: Obey me, and I will be your God and you will be my people. Do all that I command, and good things will happen to you.
