Jeremiah 19:2-6

2and goH3318 forthH3318 unto the valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, which is by the entry of the gateH8179 Harsith, and proclaimH7121 there the wordsH1697 that I shall tell thee;

3and sayH559, HearH8085 ye the wordH1697 of Jehovah, O kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, and inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389: ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, Behold, I will bringH935 evilH7451 upon this placeH4725, which whosoever heareth, his earsH241 shall tingleH6750.

4Because they have forsaken me, and have estranged this placeH4725, and have burned incenseH6999 in it unto otherH312 godsH430, that they knewH3045 not, they and their fathersH1 and the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, and have filledH4390 this placeH4725 with the bloodH1818 of innocents,

5and have builtH1129 the highH1116 placesH1116 of BaalH1168, to burnH8313 their sonsH1121 in the fireH784 for burnt-offerings unto BaalH1168; which I commandedH6680 not, nor spake it, neither cameH5927 it into my mind:

6thereforeH3651, behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saith Jehovah, that this placeH4725 shall no more be calledH7121 TophethH8612, nor The valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, but The valleyH1516 of SlaughterH2028.
