Jeremiah 1:18

1:18 I, the Lord, hereby promise to make you as strong as a fortified city, an iron pillar, and a bronze wall. You will be able to stand up against all who live in the land, including the kings of Judah, its officials, its priests and all the people of the land.

Jeremiah 4:2-3

4:2 You must be truthful, honest and upright

when you take an oath saying, ‘As surely as the Lord lives!’

If you do, the nations will pray to be as blessed by him as you are

and will make him the object of their boasting.”

4:3 Yes, the Lord has this to say

to the people of Judah and Jerusalem:

“Like a farmer breaking up hard unplowed ground,

you must break your rebellious will and make a new beginning;

just as a farmer must clear away thorns lest the seed is wasted,

you must get rid of the sin that is ruining your lives.

Jeremiah 11:15

11:15 The Lord says to the people of Judah,

that you take joy in doing evil even while you make them?

Jeremiah 19:5

19:5 They have built places here for worship of the god Baal so that they could sacrifice their children as burnt offerings to him in the fire. Such sacrifices are something I never commanded them to make! They are something I never told them to do! Indeed, such a thing never even entered my mind!

Jeremiah 19:7-9

19:7 In this place I will thwart the plans of the people of Judah and Jerusalem. I will deliver them over to the power of their enemies who are seeking to kill them. They will die by the sword at the hands of their enemies. I will make their dead bodies food for the birds and wild beasts to eat. 19:8 I will make this city an object of horror, a thing to be hissed at. All who pass by it will be filled with horror and will hiss out their scorn because of all the disasters that have happened to it. 19:9 I will reduce the people of this city to desperate straits during the siege imposed on it by their enemies who are seeking to kill them. I will make them so desperate that they will eat the flesh of their own sons and daughters and the flesh of one another.”’”

Jeremiah 20:9

20:9 Sometimes I think, “I will make no mention of his message.

I cannot contain it.

whose towns have all been deserted.

So things went well with him.

Jeremiah 23:15

23:15 So then I, the Lord who rules over all,

have something to say concerning the prophets of Jerusalem:

and drink the poison water of judgment.

For the prophets of Jerusalem are the reason

that ungodliness has spread throughout the land.’”

Jeremiah 23:27

Return to these cities of yours.

34:17 So I, the Lord, say: “You have not really obeyed me and granted freedom to your neighbor and fellow countryman.

I will make all the kingdoms of the earth horrified at what happens to you. 34:18 I will punish those people who have violated their covenant with me.

because the enemy is coming to destroy us.’

Jeremiah 49:16

49:16 The terror you inspire in others

and the arrogance of your heart have deceived you.

I would bring you down from there,”

says the Lord.
