Jeremiah 17:2-4
International Children’s Bible
2 Even their children remember
their altars to idols and their Asherah idols.
They remember the altars under the green trees
and on the high hills.
3 They remember the altars on my mountain and in the open country.
I will give your wealth and treasures
to other people.
And they will destroy the places of worship in your country.
You sinned by worshiping at those places.
4 You will lose the land I gave you.
And it is your own fault.
I will let your enemies take you as their slaves.
You will be slaves in a land you have never known.
This is because you have made my anger burn like a hot fire.
And it will burn forever.”
