26 But you have ignored me and become even more stubborn and sinful than your ancestors ever were!
27 Jeremiah, no matter what you do, the people won't listen.
28 So you must say to them:People of Judah, I am the Lord your God, but you have refused to obey me, and you didn't change when I punished you. And now, you no longer even pretend to be faithful to me.
29 Shave your head baldand throw away the hair.Sing a funeral songon top of a barren hill.You people have made me angry,and I have abandoned you.
30 You have disobeyed me by putting your disgusting idols in my temple, and now the temple itself is disgusting to me.
31 At Topheth in Hinnom Valley you have built altars where you kill your children and burn them as sacrifices to other gods. I would never think of telling you to do this.
32 So watch out! Some day that place will no longer be called Topheth or Hinnom Valley. It will be called Slaughter Valley, because you will bury your dead there until you run out of room,
