Jeremiah 44:15-17
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
15 Then all the men who knew that their wives were burning incense to other gods, and all the women who stood by—a great assembly—even all the people who dwelt in Pathros in the land of Egypt, answered Jeremiah:
16 As for the word that you have spoken to us in the name of the Lord, we will not listen to or obey you.
17 But we will certainly perform every word of the vows we have made: to burn incense to the [a]queen of heaven and to pour out drink offerings to her as we have done—we and our fathers, our kings and our princes—in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; for then we had plenty of food and were well off and prosperous and saw no evil.
