Jeremiah 7:32-33
New English Translation
32 So, watch out!”[a] says the Lord. “The time will soon come when people will no longer call those places Topheth or the Valley of Ben Hinnom. But they will call that valley[b] the Valley of Slaughter, and they will bury so many people in Topheth they will run out of room.[c] 33 Then the dead bodies of these people will be left on the ground for the birds and wild animals to eat.[d] There will not be any survivors to scare them away.
