Jeremiah 7:14-20 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

14. therefore, I will do to the house which is called by My name, in which you trust, and to the place which I gave you and your fathers, as I did to Shiloh.

15. I will cast you out of My sight, as I have cast out all your brothers, all the offspring of Ephraim.

16. "As for you, do not pray for this people, and do not lift up cry or prayer for them, and do not intercede with Me; for I do not hear you.

17. Do you not see what they are doing in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

18. The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead dough to make cakes for the queen of heaven; and they pour out drink offerings to other gods in order to spite Me.

19. Do they spite Me?" declares the Lord. "Is it not themselves they spite, to their own shame?"

20. Therefore thus says the Lord God, "Behold, My anger and My wrath will be poured out on this place, on man and on beast and on the trees of the field and on the fruit of the ground; and it will burn and not be quenched."
