Jeremiah 7:27-29

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁷So you shall speak all these words to them, but they will not listen to you. You shall call to them, but they will not answer you. ²⁸You shall say to them: This is the nation that did not obey the voice of the Lord their God, and did not accept discipline; truth has perished; it is cut off from their lips.

²⁹Cut off your hair and throw it away;
raise a lamentation on the bare heights,^[a]
for the Lord has rejected and forsaken
the generation that provoked his wrath.
