Jeremiah 16:10-13

10 “Now it will happen that, when you tell this people all these words, they will say to you, ‘ ^aFor what reason has the Lord declared all this great disaster against us? And what is our wrongdoing, or what is our sin that we have committed against the Lord our God?’ 11 Then you are to say to them, ‘It is ^bbecause your forefathers have abandoned Me,’ declares the Lord, ‘and have followed ^cother gods, and served and worshiped them; but they have abandoned Me and have not kept My Law. 12 You too have done evil, even ^dmore than your forefathers; for behold, each one of you is following the ^estubbornness of his own ^fevil heart, without listening to Me. 13 So I will ^ghurl you off this land to the ^hland which you have not known, neither you nor your fathers; and there you will ⁱserve other gods day and night, because I will show you no compassion.’
