Jeremiah 7:18-20

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁸ “The children gather wood and the fathers kindle the fire and the women knead the dough to make cakes for the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings to other gods, so that they may provoke Me to anger.

¹⁹ “Do they provoke Me to anger,” says the LORD, “and not themselves to the shame of their own faces?”

²⁰ Therefore, thus says the LORD God: “Behold, MY anger and My wrath shall be poured upon this place, upon man and upon beast, and upon the tree of the field, and upon the fruit of the ground. And it shall burn and not be quenched.”
