Jeremiah 7:19

Do Not Pray For Judah

¹⁸ The sons gather wood, the fathers light the fire, and the women knead dough to make cakes for the queen of heaven, and they pour out drink offerings to other gods so that they provoke Me to anger. ¹⁹ But are they really provoking Me?” This is the Lord’s declaration. “Isn’t it they themselves being provoked to disgrace?” ²⁰ Therefore, this is what the Lord God says: “Look, My anger—My burning wrath—is about to be poured out on this place, on man and beast, on the tree of the field, and on the produce of the land. My wrath will burn and not be quenched.”
