Jeremiah 7:17-20

17SeestH7200 thou not what they doH6213 in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 and in the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389? 18The childrenH1121 gatherH3950 woodH6086, and the fathersH1 kindleH1197 the fireH784, and the womenH802 kneadH3888 their doughH1217, to makeH6213 cakesH3561 to the queenH4446 of heavenH8064, and to pour outH5258 drink offeringsH5262 unto otherH312 godsH430, that they may provoke me to angerH3707.1 19Do they provoke me to angerH3707? saithH5002 YhwhH3068: do they not provoke themselves to the confusionH1322 of their own facesH6440? 20Therefore thus saithH559 the LordH136 YhwhH3069; Behold, mine angerH639 and my furyH2534 shall be poured outH5413 upon this placeH4725, upon manH120, and upon beastH929, and upon the treesH6086 of the fieldH7704, and upon the fruitH6529 of the groundH127; and it shall burnH1197, and shall not be quenchedH3518.
