Jeremiah 18:12New American Bible - revised editionBut they will say, “No use! We will follow our own devices; each one of us will behave according to the stubbornness of our evil hearts!” See the chapter |
Rather we will go on doing what we proposed; we will offer incense to the Queen of Heaven and pour out libations to her, just as we have done, along with our ancestors, our kings and princes, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. Then we had plenty to eat, we prospered, and we suffered no misfortune.
