13 The (A)houses of Jerusalem and the houses of the kings of Judah will be (B)defiled like the place Topheth, because of all the (C)houses on whose rooftops they burned [a]sacrifices to (D)all the heavenly [b]lights and (E)poured out drink offerings to other gods.”’”

14 Then Jeremiah came from Topheth, where the Lord had sent him to prophesy; and he stood in the (F)courtyard of the Lords house and said to all the people, 15 “This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel says: ‘Behold, I am going to bring on this city and all its towns the entire disaster that I have declared against it, because they have (G)stiffened their necks so (H)as not to listen to My words.’”
