Jeremiah 7:9
7:9 You steal.
You murder. You commit adultery. You lie when you swear on oath. You sacrifice to the god Baal. You pay allegiance to
other gods whom you have not previously known.
Jeremiah 11:13
11:13 This is in spite of the fact that
the people of Judah have as many gods as they have towns
and the citizens of Jerusalem have set up as many altars to sacrifice to that disgusting god, Baal, as they have streets in the city!’
Jeremiah 18:15
18:15 Yet my people have forgotten me
and offered sacrifices to worthless idols!
This makes them stumble along in the way they live
and leave the old reliable path of their fathers.
They have left them to walk in bypaths,
in roads that are not smooth and level.
Jeremiah 32:29-35
32:29 The Babylonian soldiers
that are attacking this city will break into it and set it on fire. They will burn it down along with the houses where people have made me angry by offering sacrifices to the god Baal and by pouring out drink offerings to other gods on their rooftops.
32:30 This will happen because the people of Israel and Judah have repeatedly done what displeases me
from their earliest history until now
and because they
have repeatedly made me angry by the things they have done.
I, the
Lord, affirm it!
32:31 This will happen because
the people of this city have aroused my anger and my wrath since the time they built it until now.
They have made me so angry that I am determined to remove
it from my sight.
32:32 I am determined to do so because the people of Israel and Judah have made me angry with all their wickedness – they, their kings, their officials, their priests, their prophets, and especially the people of Judah and the citizens of Jerusalem
have done this wickedness.
32:33 They have turned away from me instead of turning to me.
I tried over and over again
to instruct them, but they did not listen and respond to correction.
32:34 They set up their disgusting idols in the temple which I have claimed for my own
and defiled it.
32:35 They built places of worship for the god Baal in the Valley of Ben Hinnom so that they could sacrifice their sons and daughters to the god Molech.
Such a disgusting practice was not something I commanded them to do! It never even entered my mind to command them to do such a thing! So Judah is certainly liable for punishment.’

Lord will force you and your king
whom you will appoint over you to go away to a people whom you and your ancestors have not known, and you will serve other gods of wood and stone there.

Lord will scatter you among all nations, from one end of the earth to the other. There you will worship other gods that neither you nor your ancestors have known, gods of wood and stone.

to gods they had not known;
to new gods who had recently come along,
gods your ancestors had not known about.
