Jeremiah 44:4-6

Revised Geneva Translation

⁴ ‘However, I sent all my servants, the Prophets, to you, rising early and sending, saying, “Oh, do not do this abominable thing that I hate!”

⁵ ‘But they would not hear or incline their ear, to turn from their wickedness and to no longer burn incense to other gods.

⁶ ‘Therefore, My wrath and My anger was poured forth, and was kindled, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. And they were desolate and wasted, as they are this day.
