Jeremiah 44:20-30

20And JeremiahH3414 saidH559 unto all the peopleH5971, to the men, and to the womenH802, and to all the peopleH5971 that had given him that answerH6030, sayingH559, 21Is it not the incenseH6999 that ye burned in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 and in the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389, ye and your fathersH1, your kingsH4428 and your princesH8269 and the peopleH5971 of the landH776, that Jehovah rememberedH2142, and that cameH5927 into his mind? 22And Jehovah could no longer bearH5375, because of the evil of your doings, [and] because of the abominationsH8441 that ye had committed; and your landH776 is becomeH1961 a wasteH2723, and an astonishment, and a curseH7045, without inhabitantH3427, as at this dayH3117. 23Because ye have burned incenseH6999, and because ye have sinnedH2398 against Jehovah, and have not hearkened unto the voiceH6963 of Jehovah, nor walkedH1980 in his lawH8451, nor in his statutesH2708, nor in his testimoniesH5715; thereforeH3651 this evilH7451 hath comeH1980 upon you, as at this dayH3117. 24And JeremiahH3414 saidH559 unto all the peopleH5971, and to all the womenH802, HearH8085 ye the wordH1697 of Jehovah, all JudahH3063 that are in the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 25ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635, the 1GodH430 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, Ye and your wivesH802 have both spokenH1696 with your mouthsH6310, and fulfilled with your handsH3027, sayingH559, We will certainly perform our vowsH5088 which we have vowedH5087, to burn incenseH6999 to the queenH4446 of the heavensH8064, and to pourH5258 out drink-offerings unto her. Ye will certainly establishH6965 your vowsH5088, and entirely perform your vowsH5088. 26ThereforeH3651 hearH8085 ye the wordH1697 of Jehovah, all JudahH3063 that dwellH3427 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714: Behold, I have swornH7650 by my greatH1419 nameH8034, saith Jehovah, that my nameH8034 shall no more beH1961 namedH8034 in the mouthH6310 of any manH376 of JudahH3063 in all the landH776 of EgyptH4714, sayingH559, [As] the Lord Jehovah liveth. 27Behold, I will watchH8245 over them for evilH7451, and not for goodH2896; and all the menH376 of JudahH3063 that are in the landH776 of EgyptH4714 shall be consumed by the swordH2719 and by the famineH7458, until there be an endH3615 of them. 28And they that escapeH6412 the swordH2719 shall returnH7725 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714 into the landH776 of JudahH3063, a very small company; and all the remnantH7611 of JudahH3063, that have comeH935 into the landH776 of EgyptH4714 to sojourn there, shall knowH3045 whose wordH1697 shall standH6965, mine or theirs. 29And this shall be the signH226 unto you, saith Jehovah, that I will punishH6485 you in this placeH4725, that ye may knowH3045 that my wordsH1697 shall certainly standH6965 against you for evilH7451: 30thusH3541 saith Jehovah: Behold, I will giveH5414 Pharaoh-Hophra kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 into the handH3027 of his enemiesH341, and into the handH3027 of them that seekH1245 his lifeH5315; as I gaveH5414 ZedekiahH6667 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 into the handH3027 of Nebuchadrezzar kingH4428 of BabylonH894, his enemyH341, and that soughtH1245 his lifeH5315.
