JER-19:1 Thus saith the LORD, Go and get a potter's earthen
bottle, and
[take] of the ancients of the people, and of the ancients of the
priests;
JER-19:2 And go forth unto the valley of the son of Hinnom,
which [is] by the
entry of the east gate, and proclaim there the words that I
shall tell thee,
JER-19:3 And say, Hear ye the word of the LORD, O kings of
Judah, and
inhabitants of Jerusalem; Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God
of Israel;
Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, the which whosoever
heareth, his
ears shall tingle.
JER-19:4 Because they have forsaken me, and have estranged this
place, and
have burned incense in it unto other gods, whom neither they nor
their fathers
have known, nor the kings of Judah, and have filled this place
with the blood
of innocents;
JER-19:5 They have built also the high places of Baal, to burn
their sons
with fire [for] burnt offerings unto Baal, which I commanded not,
nor spake
[it], neither came [it] into my mind:
JER-19:6 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that
this place
shall no more be called Tophet, nor The valley of the son of
Hinnom, but The
valley of slaughter.
JER-19:7 And I will make void the counsel of Judah and
Jerusalem in this
place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their
enemies, and by
the hands of them that seek their lives: and their carcases will
I give to be
meat for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the
earth.
JER-19:8 And I will make this city desolate, and an hissing;
every one that
passeth thereby shall be astonished and hiss because of all the
plagues
thereof.
JER-19:9 And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons
and the flesh
of their daughters, and they shall eat every one the flesh of
his friend in
the siege and straitness, wherewith their enemies, and they that
seek their
lives, shall straiten them.
JER-19:10 Then shalt thou break the bottle in the sight of the
men that go
with thee.
JER-19:11 And shalt say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts;
Even so will
I break this people and this city, as [one] breaketh a potter's
vessel, that
cannot be made whole again: and they shall bury [them] in Tophet,
till [there
be] no place to bury.
JER-19:12 Thus will I do unto this place, saith the LORD, and
to the
inhabitants thereof, and [even] make this city as Tophet:
JER-19:13 And the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the
kings of Judah,
shall be defiled as the place of Tophet, because of all the
houses upon whose
roofs they have burned incense unto all the host of heaven, and
have poured
out drink offerings unto other gods.
JER-19:14 Then came Jeremiah from Tophet, whither the LORD had
sent him to
prophesy; and he stood in the court of the LORD'S house; and
said to all the
people,
JER-19:15 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel;
Behold, I will
bring upon this city and upon all her towns all the evil that I
have
pronounced against it, because they have hardened their necks,
that they might
not hear my words.
