Jeremiah 32:30-35

30For the children of Israel and the children of Judah have done nothing but evil in my sight afrom their youth. The children of Israel have done nothing but bprovoke me to anger cby the work of their hands, declares the Lord. 31This city has aroused my anger and wrath, from the day it was built to this day, dso that I will remove it from my sight 32because of all the evil of the children of Israel and the children of Judah that they did to provoke me to angeretheir kings and their officials, their priests and their prophets, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 33 fThey have turned to me their back and not their face. And though I have taught them gpersistently, they have not listened hto receive instruction. 34They set up itheir abominations in the house that is called by my name, to defile it. 35They built the high places of Baal jin the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, kto offer up their sons and daughters to Molech, lthough I did not command them, nor did it enter into my mind, that they should do mthis abomination, nto cause Judah to sin.

Ezekiel 8:17-18

17Then he said to me, “Have you seen this, O oson of man? Is it too light a thing for the house of Judah to commit pthe abominations that they commit here, that qthey should fill the land with violence and rprovoke me still further to anger? Behold, they put the branch to their
Or my
nose.
18Therefore tI will act in wrath. uMy eye will not spare, nor will I have pity. vAnd though they cry in my ears with a loud voice, I will not hear them.”

Matthew 23:32-36

36Truly, I say to you, anall these things will come upon this generation.
