Jeremiah 7:17-20

WEB · Bible Passage

Bible Text

[17] Don't you see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem? [18] The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead the dough, to make cakes to the queen of the sky, and to pour out drink-offerings to other gods, that they may provoke me to anger. [19] Do they provoke me to anger? says Yahweh; [do they] not [provoke] themselves, to the confusion of their own faces? [20] Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, my anger and my wrath shall be poured out on this place, on man, and on animal, and on the trees of the field, and on the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.
