Jeremiah 32:34-36

Good News Translation

^34 (A)They even placed their disgusting idols in the Temple built for my worship, and they have defiled it. ^35 (B)They have built altars to Baal in Hinnom Valley, to sacrifice their sons and daughters to the god Molech. I did not command them to do this, and it did not even enter my mind that they would do such a thing and make the people of Judah sin.”

A Promise of Hope

³⁶ The Lord, the God of Israel, said to me, “Jeremiah, the people are saying that war, starvation, and disease will make this city fall into the hands of the king of Babylonia. Now listen to what else I have to say.
