Jeremiah 44:6-8
Christian Standard Bible
6 So my fierce wrath poured out and burned in Judah’s cities and Jerusalem’s streets(A) so that they became the desolate ruin they are today.
7 “So now, this is what the Lord, the God of Armies, the God of Israel, says: Why are you doing such terrible harm to yourselves? You are cutting off man and woman, infant and nursing baby(B) from Judah, leaving yourselves without a remnant.(C) 8 You are angering me by the work of your hands. You are burning incense to other gods in the land of Egypt where you have gone to stay for a while. As a result, you will be cut off and become an example for cursing and insult among all the nations of earth.(D)
