Jeremiah 7:17-19

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁷ You can see what they are doing in Jerusalem and in all the towns of Judah. ¹⁸ The children fetch wood and their fathers use it to light a fire. The women prepare flour to cook cakes. Then they offer them to the “Queen of Heaven”. And they offer gifts of drink to other false gods. They do that to make me angry. ¹⁹ But they are not hurting me. They are hurting themselves, and they will be ashamed.’ That is what the Lord says.
