Jeremiah 44:7-9

Revised Geneva Translation

⁷ “Therefore, now, thus says the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel: ‘Why do you commit great evil against yourselves—to cut off man and woman from you, child and infant from out of Judah, leaving no one remaining—

⁸ in that you provoke Me to wrath with the works of your hands, burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt where you have gone to dwell, so that you might bring destruction to yourselves, and that you might be a curse and a reproach among all nations of the Earth?

⁹ ‘Have you forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, and the wickedness of the kings of Judah, and the wickedness of their wives, and your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives, which they have committed in the land of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
