7
I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of those who seek their life: and their dead bodies will I give to be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth.
8
I will make this city an astonishment, and a hissing; everyone who passes thereby shall be astonished and hiss because of all the plagues of it.
9
I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters; and they shall eat everyone the flesh of his friend, in the siege and in the distress, with which their enemies, and those who seek their life, shall distress them.
10
Then shall you break the bottle in the sight of the men who go with you,
11
and shall tell them, Thus says Yahweh of Hosts: Even so will I break this people and this city, as one breaks a potter`s vessel, that can`t be made whole again; and they shall bury in Topheth, until there be no place to bury.
12
Thus will I do to this place, says Yahweh, and to the inhabitants of it, even making this city as Topheth:
13
and the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, which are defiled, shall be as the place of Topheth, even all the houses on whose roofs they have burned incense to all the host of the sky, and have poured out drink-offerings to other gods.
