Jeremiah 7:19 in Context — Jeremiah 7

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.

21 Así ha dicho Jehová de los ejércitos, Dios de Israel: Añadid vuestros holocaustos sobre vuestros sacrificios, y comed carne.
