Jeremiah 44:4 DBY

²  Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel: Ye have seen all the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of Judah; and behold they are, this day, a waste, and no man dwelleth therein,

³  because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in that they went to burn incense to serve other gods which they knew not, they, [nor] ye, nor your fathers.

⁴  And I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, rising early and sending, saying, Oh, do not this abominable thing which I hate!

⁵  But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense unto other gods.

⁶  And my fury and mine anger was poured forth, and was kindled in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; and they are become a waste, a desolation, as at this day.
