Jeremiah 19:10-15

English Standard Version

¹⁰ “Then ^(A)you shall break ^(B)the flask in the sight of the men who go with you, ¹¹ and shall say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts: So will I break this people and this city, ^(C)as one breaks a potter's vessel, ^(D)so that it can never be mended. ^(E)Men shall bury in Topheth because there will be no place else to bury. ¹² Thus will I do to this place, declares the Lord, and to its inhabitants, making this city ^(F)like Topheth. ¹³ The houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah—^(G)all the houses on whose ^(H)roofs offerings have been offered ^(I)to all the host of heaven, and ^(J)drink offerings have been poured out to other gods—shall be defiled ^(K)like the place of Topheth.’”

¹⁴ Then Jeremiah came from ^(L)Topheth, where the Lord had sent him to prophesy, ^(M)and he stood in the court of the Lord's house and said to all the people: ¹⁵ “Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, behold, I am bringing upon this city and upon all its towns all the disaster that I have pronounced against it, ^(N)because they have stiffened their neck, ^(O)refusing to hear my words.”
