Jeremiah 7:21-34

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>
of hosts
<06635>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_;
Put
<05595> (8798)
your burnt offerings
<05930>
unto your sacrifices
<02077>_,
and eat
<0398> (8798)
flesh
<01320>_.
For I spake
<01696> (8765)
not unto your fathers
<01>_,
nor commanded
<06680> (8765)
them in the day
<03117>
that I brought them out
<03318> (8687)
of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
concerning
<01697>
burnt offerings
<05930>
or sacrifices
<02077>_:
{concerning: Heb. concerning the matter of}
But this thing
<01697>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
I them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Obey
<08085> (8798)
my voice
<06963>_,
and I will be your God
<0430>_,
and ye shall be my people
<05971>_:
and walk
<01980> (8804)
ye in all the ways
<01870>
that I have commanded
<06680> (8762)
you, that it may be well
<03190> (8799)
unto you.
But they hearkened
<08085> (8804)
not, nor inclined
<05186> (8689)
their ear
<0241>_,
but walked
<03212> (8799)
in the counsels
<04156>
[and] in the imagination
<08307>
of their evil
<07451>
heart
<03820>_,
and went backward
<0268>_,
and not forward
<06440>_.
{imagination: or, stubbornness} {went: Heb. were}
Since the day
<03117>
that your fathers
<01>
came forth out
<03318> (8804)
of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>
unto this day
<03117>
I have even sent
<07971> (8799)
unto you all my servants
<05650>
the prophets
<05030>_,
daily
<03117>
rising up early
<07925> (8687)
and sending
<07971> (8800)
[them]:
Yet they hearkened
<08085> (8804)
not unto me, nor inclined
<05186> (8689)
their ear
<0241>_,
but hardened
<07185> (8686)
their neck
<06203>_:
they did worse
<07489> (8689)
than their fathers
<01>_.
Therefore thou shalt speak
<01696> (8765)
all these words
<01697>
unto them; but they will not hearken
<08085> (8799)
to thee: thou shalt also call
<07121> (8804)
unto them; but they will not answer
<06030> (8799)
thee.
But thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, This [is] a nation
<01471>
that obeyeth
<08085> (8804)
not the voice
<06963>
of the LORD
<03068>
their God
<0430>_,
nor receiveth
<03947> (8804)
correction
<04148>_:
truth
<0530>
is perished
<06> (8804)_,
and is cut off
<03772> (8738)
from their mouth
<06310>_.
{correction: or, instruction}
Cut off
<01494> (8798)
thine hair
<05145>_,
[O Jerusalem], and cast [it] away
<07993> (8685)_,
and take up
<05375> (8798)
a lamentation
<07015>
on high places
<08205>_;
for the LORD
<03068>
hath rejected
<03988> (8804)
and forsaken
<05203> (8799)
the generation
<01755>
of his wrath
<05678>_.
For the children
<01121>
of Judah
<03063>
have done
<06213> (8804)
evil
<07451>
in my sight
<05869>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_:
they have set
<07760> (8804)
their abominations
<08251>
in the house
<01004>
which is called
<07121> (8738)
by my name
<08034>_,
to pollute
<02930> (8763)
it.
And they have built
<01129> (8804)
the high places
<01116>
of Tophet
<08612>_,
which [is] in the valley
<01516>
of the son
<01121>
of Hinnom
<02011>_,
to burn
<08313> (8800)
their sons
<01121>
and their daughters
<01323>
in the fire
<0784>_;
which I commanded
<06680> (8765)
[them] not, neither came
<05927> (8804)
it into my heart
<03820>_.
{came...: Heb. came it upon my heart}
Therefore, behold, the days
<03117>
come
<0935> (8802)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that it shall no more be called
<0559> (8735)
Tophet
<08612>_,
nor the valley
<01516>
of the son
<01121>
of Hinnom
<02011>_,
but the valley
<01516>
of slaughter
<02028>_:
for they shall bury
<06912> (8804)
in Tophet
<08612>_,
till there be no
<0369>
place
<04725>_.
And the carcases
<05038>
of this people
<05971>
shall be meat
<03978>
for the fowls
<05775>
of the heaven
<08064>_,
and for the beasts
<0929>
of the earth
<0776>_;
and none shall fray [them] away
<02729> (8688)_.
Then will I cause to cease
<07673> (8689)
from the cities
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>_,
and from the streets
<02351>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
the voice
<06963>
of mirth
<08342>_,
and the voice
<06963>
of gladness
<08057>_,
the voice
<06963>
of the bridegroom
<02860>_,
and the voice
<06963>
of the bride
<03618>_:
for the land
<0776>
shall be desolate
<02723>_.
