Jeremiah 16:9-13

9For thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478: “BeholdH2009, I am going to 12eliminateH7673 from thisH2088 placeH4725, before your eyesH5869 and in your timeH3117, the voiceH6963 of rejoicingH8342 and the voiceH6963 of gladnessH8057, the voiceH6963 of the groomH2860 and the voiceH6963 of the brideH3618.

10“Now whenH3588 you tellH5046 thisH2088 peopleH5971 allH3605 theseH428 wordsH1697, they will sayH559 to you, ‘3For whatH4100 reasonH5921H4100 has the LordH3068 declaredH1696 allH3605 thisH2088 greatH1419 calamityH7463 againstH5921 us? And whatH4100 is our iniquityH5771, or whatH4100 is our sinH2403 whichH834 we have committedH2398 against the LordH3068 our GodH430?’ 11Then you are to sayH559 to them, ‘It is 4becauseH5921H834 your forefathersH1 have forsakenH5800 Me,’ declaresH5002 the LordH3068, ‘and have followedH1980H310 5otherH312 godsH430 and servedH5647 them and bowedH7812 downH7812 to them; but Me they have forsakenH5800 and have not keptH8104 My lawH8451. 12You too have doneH6213 evilH7451, even 6moreH4480 thanH4480 your forefathersH1; for beholdH2009, you are eachH376 oneH376 walkingH1980 accordingH310 to the 7stubbornnessH8307 of his own 8evilH7451 heartH3820, withoutH1115 listeningH8085 to Me. 13So I will 9hurlH2904 you out of thisH2088 landH776 into the 10landH776 whichH834 you have not knownH3045, neither you norH3808 your fathersH1; and thereH8033 you will 11serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430 dayH3119 and nightH3915, for I will grantH5414 you noH3808 favorH2594.’
