Jeremiah 44:23 in Context — Jeremiah 44

21 ¿No se ha acordado Jehová, y no ha venido á su memoria el sahumerio que ofrecisteis en las ciudades de Judá, y en las plazas de Jerusalem, vosotros y vuestros padres, vuestros reyes y vuestros príncipes, y el pueblo de la tierra?

22 Y no pudo sufrir más Jehová á causa de la maldad de vuestras obras, á causa de las abominaciones que habíais hecho: por tanto vuestra tierra fué en asolamiento, y en espanto, y en maldición, hasta no quedar morador, como hoy.

23 Porque ofrecisteis sahumerios, y pecasteis contra Jehová, y no obedecisteis á la voz de Jehová, ni anduvisteis en su ley, ni en sus estatutos, ni en sus testimonios: por tanto ha venido sobre vosotros este mal, como hoy.

24 Y dijo Jeremías á todo el pueblo, y á todas las mujeres: Oid palabra de Jehová, todos los de Judá que estáis en tierra de Egipto:

25 Así ha hablado Jehová de los ejércitos, Dios de Israel, diciendo: Vosotros y vuestras mujeres proferisteis con vuestras bocas, y con vuestras manos lo ejecutasteis, diciendo: Cumpliremos efectivamente nuestros votos que hicimos, de ofrecer sahumerios á la reina del cielo y de derramarle libaciones: confirmáis á la verdad vuestros votos, y ponéis vuestros votos por obra.
