Jeremiah 44:21-23

Jeremiah 44:21-23

[21] The incense  that ye burned  in the cities  of Judah,  and in the streets  of Jerusalem,  ye, and your fathers,  your kings,  and your princes,  and the people  of the land,  did not the LORD  remember  them, and came  it not into his mind?  [22] So that the LORD  could  no longer bear,  because  of the evil  of your doings,  and because  of the abominations  which ye have committed;  therefore is your land  a desolation,  and an astonishment,  and a curse,  without an inhabitant,  as at this day.  [23] Because  ye have burned incense,  and because ye have sinned  and have not obeyed  the voice  nor walked  in his law,  nor in his statutes,  nor in his testimonies;  therefore this evil  is happened  unto you, as at this day.
