Jeremiah 19:8 in Context — Jeremiah 19
6 Por tanto, he aquí vienen días, dice Jehová, que este lugar no se llamará más Topheth, ni Valle del hijo de Hinnom, sino Valle de la Matanza.
7 Y desvaneceré el consejo de Judá y de Jerusalem en este lugar; y haréles caer á cuchillo delante de sus enemigos, y en las manos de los que buscan sus almas; y daré sus cuerpos para comida de las aves del cielo y de las bestias de la tierra:
8 Y pondré á esta ciudad por espanto y silbo: todo aquel que pasare por ella se maravillará, y silbará sobre todas sus plagas.
9 Y haréles comer la carne de sus hijos y la carne de sus hijas; y cada uno comerá la carne de su amigo, en el cerco y en el apuro con que los estrecharán sus enemigos y los que buscan sus almas.
10 Y quebrarás la vasija ante los ojos de los varones que van contigo,
