Jeremiah 22:21

1798–1870
Presbyterian
SCRIPTURE

"I spake unto thee in thy prosperity; but thou saidst, I will not hear. This hath been thy manner from thy youth, that thou obeyedst not my voice." — Jeremiah 22:21 (ASV)

Prosperity - literally, as in the margin. God spoke in this way not only once, but whenever Judah was at peace.
