Jeremiah 44:17-18
New American Standard Bible
17 But we will certainly (A)carry out every word that has proceeded from our mouths, [a]by burning [b]sacrifices to the (B)queen of heaven and pouring out drink offerings to her, just as (C)we ourselves, our forefathers, our kings, and our leaders did in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; for then we had (D)plenty of [c]food and were well off and saw no [d]misfortune. 18 But since we stopped burning [e]sacrifices to the queen of heaven and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have (E)lacked everything, and have met our end by the sword and by famine.”

New International Version
17 We will certainly do everything we said we would:(A) We will burn incense(B) to the Queen of Heaven(C) and will pour out drink offerings to her just as we and our ancestors, our kings and our officials(D) did in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem.(E) At that time we had plenty of food(F) and were well off and suffered no harm.(G) 18 But ever since we stopped burning incense to the Queen of Heaven and pouring out drink offerings(H) to her, we have had nothing and have been perishing by sword and famine.(I)”
Hosea 2:12
New American Standard Bible
12 And I will (A)destroy her vines and fig trees,
Of which she said, ‘They are my wages for prostitution
Which my lovers have given me.’
And I will (B)turn them into a forest,
And the (C)animals of the field will devour them.
