Jeremiah 22:6-9
6For thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 concerningH5921 the houseH1004 of the kingH4428 of JudahH3063: “You are like 1GileadH1568 to Me, Like the summitH7218 of LebanonH3844; Yet mostH518H3808 assuredlyH518H3808 I will makeH7896 you like a 2wildernessH4057, Like citiesH5892 which are not inhabitedH3427.7For I will setH6942 apartH6942 3destroyersH7843 againstH5921 you, EachH376 with his weaponsH3627; And they will 4cutH3772 downH3772 your choicestH4005 cedarsH730 And 5throwH5307 them on the fireH784.
8“ManyH7227 nationsH1471 will passH5674 by thisH2088 cityH5892; and they will 6sayH559 to oneH376 anotherH7453, ‘WhyH5921H4100 has the LordH3068 doneH6213 thusH3602 to thisH2088 greatH1419 cityH5892?’ 9Then they will 7answerH559, ‘BecauseH5921H834 they 8forsookH5800 the covenantH1285 of the LordH3068 their GodH430 and bowedH7812 downH7812 to otherH312 godsH430 and servedH5647 them.’”
