Make all your promises in my name.
    When you promise say, ‘You can be sure that the Lord is alive.’
    Be truthful, fair and honest when you make these promises.
Then the nations will ask for blessings from me.
    And they will boast about me.”

Here is what the Lord is telling the people of Judah and Jerusalem. He says,

“Your hearts are as hard as a field
    that has not been plowed.
So change your ways and produce good crops.
    Do not plant seeds among thorns.
People of Judah and you who live in Jerusalem, obey me.
    Do not let your hearts be stubborn.
If you do, my anger will blaze out against you.
    It will burn like fire because of the evil things you have done.
    No one will be able to put it out.
