28 Therefore thou shalt say unto them, This is the nation that did not hear the voice of the Lord their God, nor receive chastisement; the faith is lost and was cut off from their mouth.
29 Cut off thine hair, O Jerusalem, and cast it away and take up a lamentation on high places; for the Lord has cast off and forsaken the nation of his wrath.
30 For the sons of Judah have done evil in my sight, said the Lord; they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name to pollute it.
31 And they have built the high places of Tophet, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, which I did not command them, neither did it come into my heart.
32 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that it shall no longer be called Tophet, nor the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter; for they shall bury in Tophet, for there shall be no other place.
33 And the carcasses of this people shall be food for the fowls of the heaven and for the beasts of the earth; and there shall be no one to chase them away.
34 Then I will cause to cease from the cities of Judah and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride: for the land shall be desolate.
