Jeremiah 4:4
4:4 Just as ritual circumcision cuts away the foreskin
as an external symbol of dedicated covenant commitment,
you must genuinely dedicate yourselves to the Lord
and get rid of everything that hinders your commitment to me,
people of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem.
If you do not, my anger will blaze up like a flaming fire against you
that no one will be able to extinguish.
That will happen because of the evil you have done.”
Jeremiah 17:4
17:4 You will lose your hold on the land
which I gave to you as a permanent possession.
I will make you serve your enemies in a land that you know nothing about.
For you have made my anger burn like a fire that will never be put out.”
Jeremiah 34:2
34:2 The
Lord God of Israel told Jeremiah
to go and give King Zedekiah of Judah a message. He told Jeremiah
to tell him, “The
Lord says, ‘I am going to
hand this city over to the king of Babylon and he will burn it down.
Jeremiah 34:22
34:22 For I, the
Lord, affirm that
I will soon give the order and bring them back to this city. They will fight against it and capture it and burn it down. I will also make the towns of Judah desolate so that there will be no one living in them.”’”
Jeremiah 36:32
36:32 Then Jeremiah got another scroll and gave it to the scribe Baruch son of Neriah. As Jeremiah dictated, Baruch wrote on this scroll everything that had been on the scroll that King Jehoiakim of Judah burned in the fire. They also added on this scroll several other messages of the same kind.
Jeremiah 38:17
38:17 Then Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, “The Lord, the God who rules over all, the God of Israel, says, ‘You must surrender to the officers of the king of Babylon. If you do, your life will be spared and this city will not be burned down. Indeed, you and your whole family will be spared.
Jeremiah 43:12
43:12 He will set fire
to the temples of the gods of Egypt. He will burn their gods or carry them off as captives.
He will pick Egypt clean like a shepherd picks the lice from his clothing.
He will leave there unharmed.
