Jeremiah 7:29-34

291CutH1494 offH1494 2your hairH5145 and castH7993 it awayH7993, And 3takeH5375 up a lamentationH7015 on the bareH8205 heightsH8205; For the LordH3068 has 4rejectedH3988 and forsakenH5203 The generationH1755 of His wrathH5678.’ 30For the sonsH1121 of JudahH3063 have doneH6213 that whichH7451 is evilH7451 in My sightH5869,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “they have 5setH7760 their detestableH8251 thingsH8251 in the houseH1004 whichH834 is calledH7121 by My nameH8034, to defileH2930 it. 31They have 6builtH1129 the highH1116 placesH1116 of TophethH8612, whichH834 is in the valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, to 7burnH8313 their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323 in the fireH784, whichH834 I 8did not commandH6680, and it did not comeH5927 into My 9mindH3820.

32“10ThereforeH3651, beholdH2009, daysH3117 are comingH935,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “when it will noH3808 longerH5750 be calledH559 TophethH8612, or the valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, but the valleyH1516 of the SlaughterH2028; for they will 11buryH6912 in TophethH8612 12becauseH4480 thereH369 is noH369 other placeH4725. 33The 13deadH5038 bodiesH5038 of thisH2088 peopleH5971 will be foodH3978 for the birdsH5775 of the skyH8064 and for the beastsH929 of the earthH776; and noH369 oneH369 will frightenH2729 them away. 34Then I will make to 14ceaseH7673 from the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 and from the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389 the voiceH6963 of joyH8342 and the voiceH6963 of gladnessH8057, the voiceH6963 of the bridegroomH2860 and the voiceH6963 of the brideH3618; for the 15landH776 will becomeH1961 a ruinH2723.
