Jeremiah 9:14-16

International Children’s Bible

¹⁴ Instead, the people of Judah were stubborn. They followed the false god Baal. Their fathers taught them to do this!” ¹⁵ So this is what the Lord of heaven’s armies, God of Israel, says: “I will soon make the people of Judah eat bitter food. I will make them drink poisoned water. ¹⁶ I will scatter them through other nations. They will live in strange nations that they and their ancestors never knew about. I will chase the people of Judah with the sword until they are all killed.”
