- "As for the smoking sacrifices that you burned in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your forefathers, your kings and your princes, and the people of the land, did not the LORD remember them and did not all this come into His mind?
- "So the LORD was no longer able to endure it, because of the evil of your deeds, because of the abominations which you have committed; thus your land has become a ruin, an object of horror and a curse, without an inhabitant, as it is this day.
- "Because you have burned sacrifices and have sinned against the LORD and not obeyed the voice of the LORD or walked in His law, His statutes or His testimonies, therefore this calamity has befallen you, as it has this day."
- Then Jeremiah said to all the people, including all the women, "Hear the word of the LORD, all Judah who are in the land of Egypt,

- 你们与你们列祖,君王,首领,并国内的百姓,在犹大城邑中和耶路撒冷街市上所烧的香,耶和华岂不记念,心中岂不思想麽。
- 耶和华因你们所作的恶,所行可憎的事,不能再容忍,所以你们的地荒凉,令人惊骇咒诅,无人居住,正如今日一样。
- 你们烧香,得罪耶和华,没有听从他的话,没有遵行他的律法,条例,法度,所以你们遭遇这灾祸,正如今日一样。
- 耶利米又对众民和众妇女说,你们在埃及地的一切犹大人当听耶和华的话。
- 万军之耶和华以色列的神如此说,你们和你们的妻都口中说,手里作,说,我们定要偿还所许的愿,向天后烧香,浇奠祭。现在你们只管坚定所许的愿而偿还吧。
