Jeremiah 7:7

7 If you stop doing these things, ^{▼▼ The translation uses imperatives in vv. 5–6 followed by the phrase, “If you do all this,” to avoid the long and complex sentence structure of the Hebrew sentence which has a series of conditional clauses in vv. 5–6 followed by a main clause in v. 7.} I will allow you to continue to live in this land ^{▼▼ Heb “live in this place, in this land.”} which I gave to your ancestors as a lasting possession. ^{▼▼ Heb “gave to your fathers [with reference to] from ancient times even unto forever.”}
