Jeremiah 19:9-11

Expanded Bible

⁹ An enemy army will ·surround [besiege] the city and will not let anyone go out to get food. I will make the people so hungry that they will eat the ·bodies [flesh] of their own sons and daughters, and then they will begin to eat ·each other [their neighbors].’

¹⁰ “While the people with you are watching, break that ·jar [jug]. ¹¹ Then say this: ‘The Lord ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; ^Tof hosts] says: I will break this ·nation [people] and this city just as someone breaks a clay ·jar [jug] that cannot be ·put back together [mended; repaired] again. The dead people will be buried here in Topheth [^C“Spit”; v. 6; 7:32], because there is no other place for them.
