Jeremiah 19:2-6
2Then goH3318 out to the 1valleyH1516 of Ben-hinnomH1121H2011, whichH834 is by the entranceH6607 of the potsherdH2777 gateH8179, and 2proclaimH7121 thereH8033 the wordsH1697 that I tellH1696 you,
3and sayH559, ‘HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LordH3068, O 3kingsH4428 of JudahH3063 and inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389: thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, “BeholdH2009 I am about to bringH935 a 4calamityH7463 upon thisH2088 placeH4725, at whichH834 the 5earsH241 of everyoneH3605 that hearsH8085 of it will tingleH6750.
4BecauseH3282H834 they have 6forsakenH5800 Me and have 7madeH5235 thisH2088 an alienH5235 placeH4725 and have burnedH6999 8sacrificesH6999 in it to 9otherH312 godsH430, that neitherH3808 they norH3808 their forefathersH1 norH3808 the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063 had ever knownH3045, and because they have filledH4390 thisH2088 placeH4725 with the 10bloodH1818 of the innocentH5355
5and have builtH1129 the 11highH1116 placesH1116 of BaalH1168 to burnH8313 their 12sonsH1121 in the fireH784 as burntH5930 offeringsH5930 to BaalH1168, a thing whichH834 I neverH3808 commandedH6680 or spokeH1696 of, norH3808 did it ever enterH5927 My 13mindH3820;
6thereforeH3651, beholdH2009, 14daysH3117 are comingH935,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “when thisH2088 placeH4725 will noH3808 longerH5750 be calledH7121 15TophethH8612 or 16the valleyH1516 of Ben-hinnomH1121H2011, but ratherH3588H518 the valleyH1516 of SlaughterH2028.
