Jeremiah 19:3-8

3and say, Hear the word of Jehovah, O kings of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem. Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the 1God of Israel: Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, the which whosoever heareth, his ears shall tingle;

4because they have forsaken me, and have estranged this place [from me], and have burned incense in it unto other 2gods, whom neither they nor their fathers have known, nor the kings of Judah; and have filled this place with the blood of innocents;

5and they have built the high places of Baal, to burn their sons in the fire as burnt-offerings unto Baal, which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it up into my mind:

6therefore behold, days come, saith Jehovah, that this place shall no more be called Topheth, nor Valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter.

7And I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of them that seek their life, and their carcases will I give as food to the fowl of the heavens and to the beasts of the earth.

8And I will make this city an astonishment and a hissing; every one that passeth by shall be astonished and hiss because of all the plagues thereof.
