Jeremiah 44:7-10
English Standard Version
7 And now thus says the Lord God of hosts, the God of Israel: Why do you commit this great evil (A)against yourselves, to cut off from you (B)man and woman, (C)infant and child, from the midst of Judah, leaving you no remnant? 8 (D)Why do you provoke me to anger with the works of your hands, (E)making offerings to other gods in the land of Egypt where you have come to live, so that you may be cut off and become (F)a curse and a taunt among all the nations of the earth? 9 Have you forgotten the evil of your fathers, (G)the evil of the kings of Judah, (H)the evil of their[a] wives, your own evil, (I)and the evil of your wives, which they committed in the land of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem? 10 They have not humbled themselves even to this day, (J)nor have they feared, nor walked in my law and my statutes that I set before you and before your fathers.
