Jeremiah 7:16-20

Idolatry and Unquenchable Wrath

Jeremiah 7:16-20
16
“Therefore don’t pray for this people, neither lift up a cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me; for I will not hear you.
17
Don’t you see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
18
The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead the dough, to make cakes to the queen of the sky, and to pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.
19
Do they provoke me to anger? says the LORD. “Don’t they provoke themselves, to the confusion of their own faces?”
20
Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: “Behold, my anger and my wrath shall be poured out on this place, on man, and on animal, and on the trees of the field, and on the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.”
