Jeremiah 32:30–35

³⁰because the children of Israel and the children of Judah ^fhave done only evil before Me from their youth. For the children of Israel have provoked Me only to anger with the work of their hands,’ says the Lord. ³¹‘For this city has been to Me a provocation of My anger and My fury from the day that they built it, even to this day; ^gso I will remove it from before My face ³²because of all the evil of the children of Israel and the children of Judah, which they have done to provoke Me to anger—^hthey, their kings, their princes, their priests, ⁱtheir prophets, the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. ³³And they have turned to Me the ^jback, and not the face; though I taught them, ^krising up early and teaching them, yet they have not listened to receive instruction. ³⁴But they ^lset their abominations in ⁵the house which is called by My name, to defile it. ³⁵And they built the high places of Baal which are in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, to ^mcause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire to ⁿMolech, ^owhich I did not command them, nor did it come into My mind that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.’
