Jeremiah 12:16-17 Good News Bible Catholic Edition (GNBDK)

16. If with all their hearts they will accept the religion of my people and will swear, ‘As the Lord lives’ — as they once taught my people to swear by Baal — then they will also be a part of my people and will prosper.

17. But if any nation will not obey, then I will completely uproot it and destroy it. I, the Lord, have spoken.”
