Jeremiah 44:16King James 3 - The Literal TraslationAs for the Word that you have spoken to us in the name of Jehovah, we will not listen to you. See the chapter |
So says Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel, saying: You and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hands, saying, Performing we will perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out drink offerings to her. Lifting up you lift up your vows and performing you perform your vows.
Now if you are ready, at the time you hear the sound of the horn, the pipe, zither, the lyre, harp, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, fall down and do homage to the image which I have made. But if you do not do homage, in that moment you shall be thrown into the middle of a burning furnace of fire. And who is that god who shall deliver you out of my hand?
