Jeremiah 44:2-6

2“ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, ‘You yourselvesH864 have seenH7200 allH3605 the calamityH7463 that I have broughtH935 on JerusalemH3389 and allH3605 the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063; and beholdH2009, thisH2088 dayH3117 they are in 1ruinsH2723 and noH369 oneH369 livesH3427 in them,

32becauseH4480H6440 of their wickednessH7463 whichH834 they committedH6213 so as to 3provokeH3707 Me to angerH3707 by continuingH1980 to 4burnH6999 5sacrificesH6999 and to 6serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430 whomH834 they had not knownH3045, neither they, you, norH3808 your fathersH1.

4Yet I 7sentH7971 you allH3605 My servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, 8againH7925 and againH7971, sayingH559, “OhH4994, do not doH6213 thisH2088 9abominableH8441 thingH1697 whichH834 I hateH8130.”

5But 10they did not listenH8085 or inclineH5186 their earsH241 to turnH7725 from their wickednessH7463, so as not to burnH6999 11sacrificesH6999 to otherH312 godsH430.

6Therefore My 12wrathH2534 and My angerH639 were pouredH5413 out and burnedH1197 in the 13citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 and in the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389, so they haveH1961 becomeH1961 a ruinH2723 and a 14desolationH8077 as it is thisH2088 dayH3117.
