Jeremiah 13:8-10

New Century Version

⁸ Then the Lord spoke his word to me. ⁹ This is what the Lord said: “In the same way I will ruin the pride of the people of Judah and the great pride of Jerusalem. ¹⁰ These evil people refuse to listen to my warnings. They stubbornly do only what they want to do, and they follow other gods to serve and worship them. So they will become like this linen belt—good for nothing.
