Jeremiah 44:16

A Message Of Rebuke For The Rebellious Remnant

¹⁵ Then all the men who knew that their wives offered sacrifices to other gods, and all the women who were standing there, including the Israelites who lived in southern Egypt, a large crowd in all said to me: ¹⁶ “As for the message that you have spoken to us in the name of the Lord, we are not going to listen to you! ¹⁷ We will do everything that we said we would. We will offer sacrifices to our goddess, the Queen of Heaven, and we will pour out wine offerings to her, just as our ancestors, our king and our leaders, and we used to do in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. Then we had plenty of food, we were prosperous, and had no troubles.
