Jeremiah 19:5-7
Darby Translation
Jeremiah 19:5-7
Darby Translation
5 and they have built the high places of Baal, to burn their sons in the fire as burnt-offerings unto Baal, which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it up into my mind:
6 therefore behold, days come, saith Jehovah, that this place shall no more be called Topheth, nor Valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter.
7 And I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of them that seek their life, and their carcases will I give as food to the fowl of the heavens and to the beasts of the earth.

New International Version
Jeremiah 19:5-7
New International Version
5 They have built the high places of Baal to burn their children(A) in the fire as offerings to Baal—something I did not command or mention, nor did it enter my mind.(B) 6 So beware, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when people will no longer call this place Topheth(C) or the Valley of Ben Hinnom,(D) but the Valley of Slaughter.(E)
7 “‘In this place I will ruin[a] the plans(F) of Judah and Jerusalem. I will make them fall by the sword before their enemies,(G) at the hands of those who want to kill them, and I will give their carcasses(H) as food(I) to the birds and the wild animals.

- Jeremiah 19:7 The Hebrew for ruin sounds like the Hebrew for jar (see verses 1 and 10).
