Jeremiah 16:11-13

Contemporary English Version

¹¹ Then tell them I have said:

People of Judah, your ancestors turned away from me; they rejected my laws and teachings and started worshiping other gods. ¹² And you have done even worse! You are stubborn, and instead of obeying me, you do whatever evil comes to your mind. ¹³ So I will throw you into a land that you and your ancestors know nothing about, a place where you will have to worship other gods both day and night. And I won't feel the least bit sorry for you.
