19 The Eternal said to me, “Go and get a potter’s jar of clay; get some of the leading laymen and some of the priests, 2 and go out to the valley belonging to Ben-Hinnom, close to the entry of the Potsherd Gate; there announce the message I give you, 3 saying, ‘Listen to the word of the Eternal, O kings of Judah and citizens of Jerusalem. This is what the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, says: I am bringing a disaster on this city, that will make the ears of every hearer ring; 4 because the people have forsaken me and desecrated this valley by sacrificing here to foreign gods, which neither they nor their fathers ever knew; kings of Judah have drenched this valley with innocent blood, 5 erecting shrines to Baal for burning alive their children as a sacrifice to Baal--a thing I never ordered, never mentioned, a thing that never entered my mind! 6 So the day will come, the Eternal declares, when its name shall no longer be Topheth, or The valley belonging to Ben-Hinnom, but The valley of Slaughter; 7 I will empty out here this jar full of plans made by Judah and Jerusalem; I will make them fall by the sword before their enemies and die by the hand of murderous pursuers, leaving their corpses as food for the wild birds and wild beasts; 8 I will make this city a desolation and a scorn, so that any passer-by shall whistle in surprise and horror at all my crushing blows; 9 I will make the citizens eat the flesh of their own sons and daughters, and every man shall eat the flesh of his fellow, in the siege and straits by which their enemies and murderous pursuers hem them in.’ 10 Then you must break the jar in presence of the men who have accompanied you, 11 giving them this message from the Lord of hosts: ‘I will break this people and this city just as one breaks a potter’s jar, so that it cannot be repaired. 12 That is how I will treat this city and its citizens, says the Eternal. I will desecrate this city like Topheth, 13 and make the house of Jerusalem and of the kings of Judah as unclean as Topheth, all the houses on whose roofs sacrifice was offered to the starry host and libations poured out in honour of foreign gods.’ ”
14 Then Jeremiah left Topheth, where the Eternal had sent him to prophesy, and stood inside the court of the Eternal’s house, where he told the people, 15 “This is what the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, says: ‘I am bringing on the city and on all her townships the full evil that I threatened; for they have obstinately refused to listen to my words.’ ”
