Jeremiah 7:18-20

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁸ The sons gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough to make cakes to the queen of heaven and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods that they may provoke me to anger.

¹⁹ Shall they provoke me to anger? said the LORD: do they not provoke themselves to the confusion of their own faces?

²⁰ Therefore thus hath the Lord GOD said: Behold, my anger and my fury shall be poured out upon this place, upon man and upon beast and upon the trees of the field and upon the fruit of the ground, and it shall burn and shall not be quenched.
