Jeremiah 32:29-34 Good News Bible (GNB)

29. and set it on fire. They will burn it down, together with the houses where people have made me angry by burning incense to Baal on the rooftops and by pouring out wine offerings to other gods.

30. From the very beginning of their history the people of Israel and the people of Judah have displeased me and made me angry by what they have done.

31. The people of this city have made me angry and furious from the day it was built. I have decided to destroy it

32. because of all the evil that has been done by the people of Judah and Jerusalem, together with their kings and leaders, their priests and prophets.

33. They turned their backs on me; and though I kept on teaching them, they would not listen and learn.

34. They even placed their disgusting idols in the Temple built for my worship, and they have defiled it.
