Jeremiah 7:18-20

The Voice

¹⁸ The children gather the firewood, the fathers tend the fire, and the mothers bake the bread for the so-called queen of heaven! The people pour out drink offerings in honor of other gods as if to spite Me. ¹⁹ What they are doing doesn’t hurt me; it only hurts them, to their own disgrace. ²⁰ Now hear what I, the Eternal Lord, declare: “The heat of My anger will pour out on this land, on man and beast, on the trees of the field and the fruit of the soil. My wrath will burn through this place and not be quenched.
