Jeremiah 7:18 in Context — Jeremiah 7
16 Tú pues, no ores por este pueblo, ni levantes por ellos clamor ni oración, ni me ruegues; porque no te oiré.
17 ¿No ves lo que estos hacen en las ciudades de Judá y en las calles de Jerusalem?
18 Los hijos cogen la leña, y los padres encienden el fuego, y las mujeres amasan la masa, para hacer tortas á la reina del cielo y para hacer ofrendas á dioses ajenos, por provocarme á ira.
19 ¿Provocaránme ellos á ira, dice Jehová, y no más bien [obran] ellos mismos para confusión de sus rostros?
20 Por tanto, así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: He aquí que mi furor y mi ira se derrama sobre este lugar, sobre los hombres, sobre los animales, y sobre los árboles del campo, y sobre los frutos de la tierra; y encenderáse, y no se apagará.
