Jeremiah 32:31-33

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³¹ For this city hath been to me a provocation and indignation from the day that they built it, until this day, in which it shall be taken out of my sight.

³² Because of all the evil of the children of Israel, and of the children of Juda, which they have done, provoking me to wrath, they and their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets, the men of Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

³³ And they have turned their backs to me, and not their faces: when I taught them early in the morning, and instructed them, and they would not hearken to receive instruction.
