Jeremiah 15:4-6
1599 Geneva Bible
4 I will [a]scatter them also in all kingdoms of the earth, [b]because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah King of Judah for that which he did in Jerusalem.
5 Who shall then have pity upon thee, O Jerusalem? or who shall be sorry for thee? or who shall go to pray for thy peace?
6 Thou hast forsaken me, saith the Lord, and gone backward: therefore will I stretch out mine hand against thee, and destroy thee: for I [c]am weary with repenting.
