Jeremiah 7:29-31

Holman Christian Standard Bible

²⁹ Cut off the hair of your sacred vow^[a](A) and throw it away. Raise up a dirge on the barren heights,^(B) for the Lord has rejected and abandoned the generation under His wrath.^(C)

³⁰ “For the Judeans have done what is evil in My sight.” This is the Lord’s declaration. “They have set up their detestable things^(D) in the house that is called by My name and defiled it.^{(E) 31} They have built the high places of Topheth^[b](F) in the Valley of Hinnom^[c](G) in order to burn their sons and daughters in the fire,^(H) a thing I did not command; I never entertained the thought.^[d]
