  • Jer 44:2-9 : 2 Thus says the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel: You have seen all the disaster I brought upon Jerusalem and upon all the cities of Judah. Look, they are a ruin today, without anyone living there. 3 This happened because of their wickedness in provoking me to anger by burning incense and worshiping other gods—gods they, you, and your ancestors did not know. 4 I sent you all my servants the prophets, rising early and sending them, saying: 'Do not do this detestable thing that I hate.' 5 But they did not listen or incline their ears to turn from their wickedness and to stop burning incense to other gods. 6 So my fury and my anger poured out and burned in the cities of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem, making them a desolate ruin, as they are today. 7 Now therefore, thus says the LORD, the God of Hosts, the God of Israel: Why are you doing such great harm to yourselves, cutting off from Judah man, woman, child, and infant, leaving yourselves without any remnant? 8 You provoke me to anger with the works of your hands by burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt, where you have come to live, so as to destroy yourselves and make yourselves a curse and a disgrace among all the nations of the earth. 9 Have you forgotten the wickedness of your fathers, the wickedness of the kings of Judah, the wickedness of their wives, your own wickedness, and the wickedness of your wives, which they committed in the land of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem? 10 To this day, they have not humbled themselves, nor have they feared me or walked in my law and my decrees that I set before you and your ancestors. 11 Therefore, this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says: Behold, I have set my face against you for harm, to cut off all Judah. 12 I will take the remnant of Judah who were determined to go to the land of Egypt to live there, and they will all meet their end in the land of Egypt. They will fall by the sword and perish by famine. From the least to the greatest, they will die by the sword and famine. They will become an object of cursing and astonishment, a curse and a reproach. 13 And I will punish those who live in the land of Egypt as I punished Jerusalem, with the sword, famine, and pestilence. 14 None of the remnant of Judah who have come to live as foreigners in the land of Egypt will escape or survive to return to the land of Judah. They are longing to return to live there, but none will return except a few fugitives. 15 Then all the men who knew that their wives were burning incense to other gods answered Jeremiah, along with all the women standing there in a large assembly, and all the people living in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, saying: 16 The word you have spoken to us in the name of the LORD, we will not listen to you. 17 Instead, we will do everything we promised: we will burn incense to the Queen of Heaven and pour out drink offerings to her, just as we, our ancestors, our kings, and our officials did in the cities of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem. At that time, we had plenty of food, prospered, and experienced no disaster.
