Jeremiah 19:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible
9 (A)And I will feed them with the flesh of their sons, and with the flesh of their daughters, and everyone shall eat the flesh of his friend in the siege and straitness, wherewith their enemies that seek their lives, shall hold them strait.
10 Then shalt thou break the bottle in the sight of the men that go with thee,
11 And shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Even so will I break this people and this city, as one breaketh a [a]potter’s vessel, that cannot be made whole again, and they shall bury them in Topheth till there be no place to bury.
