Jeremiah 32:29-31

New International Reader's Version

²⁹ The armies of Babylon are now attacking this city. They will come in and set it on fire. They will burn it down. They will burn down the houses where the people made me very angry. They burned incense on their roofs to the god named Baal. And they poured out drink offerings to other gods.

³⁰ “The people of Israel and Judah have done nothing but evil in my eyes. They have done it since the nation was young. In fact, they have done nothing but make me very angry. They have worshiped statues of gods their own hands have made,” announces the Lord. ³¹ “This city has always stirred up my great anger. It has done it since the day it was built. Now I must remove it from my sight.
