Jeremiah 9:14-16

Living Bible

¹⁴ Instead, they have done whatever they pleased and worshiped the idols of Baal, as their fathers told them to.” ¹⁵ Therefore, this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Look! I will feed them with bitterness and give them poison to drink. ¹⁶ I will scatter them around the world, to be strangers in distant lands; and even there the sword of destruction shall chase them until I have utterly destroyed them.
