- Thus says the LORD, "Go and buy a potter's earthenware jar, and take some of the elders of the people and some of the senior priests.
- "Then go out to the valley of Ben-hinnom, which is by the entrance of the potsherd gate, and proclaim there the words that I tell you,
- and say, 'Hear the word of the LORD, O kings of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, "Behold I am about to bring a calamity upon this place, at which the ears of everyone that hears of it will tingle.
- "Because they have forsaken Me and have made this an alien place and have burned sacrifices in it to other gods, that neither they nor their forefathers nor the kings of Judah had ever known, and because they have filled this place with the blood of the innocent
- and have built the high places of Baal to burn their sons in the fire as burnt offerings to Baal, a thing which I never commanded or spoke of, nor did it ever enter My mind;

- 耶和华如此说,你去买窑匠的瓦瓶,又带百姓中的长老和祭司中的长老,
- 出去到欣嫩子谷,哈珥西(就是瓦片的意思)的门口那里,宣告我所吩咐你的话,
- 说,犹大君王和耶路撒冷的居民哪,当听耶和华的话。万军之耶和华以色列的神如此说,我必使灾祸临到这地方,凡听见的人都必耳呜。
- 因为他们和他们列祖,并犹大君王离弃我,将这地方看为平常,在这里向素不认识的别神烧香,又使这地方满了无辜人的血,
- 又建筑巴力的邱坛,好在火中焚烧自己的儿子,作为燔祭献给巴力。这不是我所吩咐的,不是我所提说的,也不是我心所起的意。
