Jeremiah 19:1-10

1ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORDH3068, GoH1980, and buyH7069 a potter’sH3335 earthenH2789 bottle, and takeH1980 of the eldersH2205 of the peopleH5971, and of the eldersH2205 of the priestsH3548;

2and goH3318 forthH3318 unto the valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, whichH834 is by the entryH6607 of the gateH8179 Harsith, and proclaimH7121 there the wordsH1697 that I shall tellH1696 thee:

3and sayH559, HearH8085 ye the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, O kingsH4428 of JudahH3063, and inhabitantsH3427 of JerusalemH3389; thusH3541 saith the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, BeholdH2005, I will bringH935 evilH7451 uponH5921 this placeH4725, the whichH834 whosoever heareth, his earsH241 shall tingleH6750.

4BecauseH3282 they have forsaken meH3808, and have estranged this placeH4725, and have burnedH6999 incenseH6999 in it unto otherH312 godsH430, whomH834 they knewH3045 notH3808, they and their fathersH1 and the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063; and have filledH4390 this placeH4725 with the bloodH1818 of innocents;

5and have builtH1129 the highH1116 placesH1116 of BaalH1168, to burnH8313 their sonsH1121 in the fireH784 for burntH5930 offeringsH5930 unto BaalH1168; whichH834 I commandedH6680 notH3808, norH3808 spake it, neitherH3808 cameH5927 it intoH5921 my mindH3820:

6therefore, beholdH2009, the daysH3117 comeH935, saith the LORDH3068, that this placeH4725 shall noH3808 moreH5750 be calledH7121 TophethH8612, norH3808 The valleyH1516 of the sonH1121 of HinnomH2011, but The valleyH1516 of SlaughterH2028.

7And I will makeH5414 voidH5307 the counselH6098 of JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389 in this placeH4725; and I will causeH5414 them to fallH5307 by the swordH2719 beforeH6440 their enemiesH341, and by the handH3027 of them that seekH1245 their lifeH5315: and their carcases will I giveH5414 to be meat for the fowls of the heavenH8064, and for the beastsH929 of the earthH776.

8And I will makeH7760 this cityH5892 an astonishment, and an hissingH8322; everyH3605 one that passeth thereby shall be astonishedH8074 and hissH8319 becauseH5921 of allH3605 the plaguesH4347 thereof.

9And I will cause them to eatH398 the fleshH1320 of their sonsH1121 and the fleshH1320 of their daughtersH1323, and they shall eatH398 everyH376 one the fleshH1320 of his friendH7453, in the siegeH4692 and in the straitness, wherewith their enemiesH341, and they that seekH1245 their lifeH5315, shall straiten them.

10Then shalt thou breakH7665 the bottle in the sightH5869 of the menH376 that goH1980 with thee,
