Jeremiah 19:11
19:11 Tell them the
Lord who rules over all says,
‘I will do just as Jeremiah has done.
I will smash this nation and this city as though it were a potter’s vessel which is broken beyond repair.
The dead will be buried here in Topheth until there is no more room to bury them.’
Jeremiah 19:13
19:13 The houses in Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah will be defiled by dead bodies
just like this place, Topheth. For they offered sacrifice to the stars
and poured out drink offerings to other gods on the roofs of those houses.’”
Jeremiah 19:2
19:2 Go out to the part of the Hinnom Valley which is near the entrance of the Potsherd Gate.
Announce there what I tell you.
Jeremiah 23:10
23:10 For the land is full of people unfaithful to him.
They live wicked lives and they misuse their power.
So the land is dried up because it is under his curse.
The pastures in the wilderness are withered.
