Jeremiah 19:3-8

3and say, ‘Hear the word of the Lord, O 1kings of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, “Behold I am about to bring a 2calamity upon this place, at which the 3ears of everyone that hears of it will tingle.

4Because they have 4forsaken Me and have 5made this an alien place and have burned 6sacrifices in it to 7other gods, that neither they nor their forefathers nor the kings of Judah had ever known, and because they have filled this place with the 8blood of the innocent

5and have built the 9high places of Baal to burn their 10sons in the fire as burnt offerings to Baal, a thing which I never commanded or spoke of, nor did it ever enter My 11mind;

6therefore, behold, 12days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when this place will no longer be called 13Topheth or 14the valley of Ben-hinnom, but rather the valley of Slaughter.

7I will 15make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place, and 16I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies and by the hand of those who seek their life; and I will give over their 17carcasses as food for the birds of the sky and the beasts of the earth.

8I will also make this city a 18desolation and an object of hissing; 19everyone who passes by it will be astonished and hiss because of all its 20disasters.
