Surrounding context
“Stand in the gate of Yahweh’s house, and proclaim this word there, and say, ‘Hear Yahweh’s word, all you of Judah, who enter in at these gates to worship Yahweh.’”
Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel says, “Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place.
Don’t trust in lying words, saying, ‘Yahweh’s temple, Yahweh’s temple, Yahweh’s temple, are these.’
For if you thoroughly amend your ways and your doings, if you thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbor;
if you don’t oppress the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow, and don’t shed innocent blood in this place, and don’t walk after other gods to your own hurt;
then I will cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, from of old even forever more.
Behold, you trust in lying words that can’t profit.
