Jeremiah 7:18

Do Not Pray For Judah

¹⁷ Dost thou not see what they do 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 Shall they provoke me to anger? said the LORD: do they not provoke themselves to the confusion of their own faces?
