Jeremiah 7:16 in Context — Jeremiah 7
14 Farei também a esta casa, que se chama pelo meu nome, em que vós confiais, e a este lugar que dei a vós e a vossos pais, tal como fiz a Siló:
15 E eu vos lançarei fora de minha presença, tal como lancei a todos os vossos irmãos, toda a geração de Efraim.
16 Por isso não ores tu por este povo, nem levantes por eles clamor nem oração, nem rogues a mim, pois eu não te ouvirei.
17 Não vês o que eles costumam fazer nas cidades de Judá e nas ruas de Jerusalém?
18 Os filhos coletam a lenha, e os pais acendem o fogo, e as mulheres amassam a massa, para fazerem bolos à rainha dos céus e dedicarem ofertas de bebidas a deuses estrangeiros, para me provocarem à ira.
