\n19\u00a0Thus says the\u00a0Lord, \u201cGo and buy a\u00a0potter\u2019s earthenware\u00a0jar, and\u00a0take<\/em>\u00a0some of the\u00a0elders of the people and some of the\u00a0[a<\/a>]<\/sup>senior priests.\u00a02\u00a0<\/sup>Then go out to the\u00a0valley of Ben-hinnom, which is by the entrance of the potsherd gate, and\u00a0proclaim there the words that I tell you,\u00a03\u00a0<\/sup>and say, \u2018Hear the word of the\u00a0Lord, O\u00a0kings of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem: thus says the\u00a0Lord\u00a0of hosts, the God of Israel, \u201cBehold I am about to bring a\u00a0calamity upon this place, at which the\u00a0ears of everyone that hears of it will tingle.\u00a04\u00a0<\/sup>Because they have\u00a0forsaken Me and have\u00a0made this an alien place and have burned\u00a0[b<\/a>]<\/sup>sacrifices in it to\u00a0other gods, that neither they nor their forefathers nor the kings of Judah had\u00a0ever<\/em>\u00a0known, and\u00a0because<\/em>\u00a0they have filled this place with the\u00a0blood of the innocent\u00a05\u00a0<\/sup>and have built the\u00a0high places of Baal to burn their\u00a0sons in the fire as burnt offerings to Baal, a thing which I never commanded or spoke of, nor did it\u00a0ever<\/em>\u00a0enter My\u00a0[c<\/a>]<\/sup>mind;\u00a06\u00a0<\/sup>therefore, behold,\u00a0days are coming,\u201d declares the\u00a0Lord, \u201cwhen this place will no longer be called\u00a0Topheth or\u00a0the valley of Ben-hinnom, but rather the valley of Slaughter.\u00a07\u00a0<\/sup>I will\u00a0make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place, and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies and by the hand of those who seek their life; and I will give over their\u00a0carcasses as food for the birds of the sky and the beasts of the earth.8\u00a0<\/sup>I will also make this city a\u00a0desolation and an\u00a0object of\u00a0hissing;\u00a0everyone who passes by it will be astonished and hiss because of all its\u00a0[d<\/a>]<\/sup>disasters.\u00a09\u00a0<\/sup>I will make them\u00a0eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they will eat one another\u2019s flesh in the siege and in the distress with which their enemies and those who seek their life will distress them.\u201d\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
