Jeremiah 44:21-23

21 ^a“As for the offerings that you offered in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your fathers, your kings and your officials, and the people of the land, ^bdid not the Lord remember them? Did it not come into his mind? 22 ^cThe Lord could no longer bear your evil deeds and ^dthe abominations that you committed. ^eTherefore your land has become ^fa desolation and a waste and a curse, ^gwithout inhabitant, as it is this day. 23 It is because you made offerings ^hand because you sinned against the Lord and did not obey the voice of the Lord or walk in his law and in his statutes and in his testimonies ⁱthat this disaster has happened to you, as at this day.”
