Jeremiah 44:7

"Thou hast consulted shame to thy house by cutting off many people, and hast sinned against thy soul."

"With thee also will I break in pieces man and woman; and with thee will I break in pieces old and young; and with thee will I break in pieces the young man and the maid;"

"Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?"

"The censers of these sinners against their own souls, let them make them broad plates for a covering of the altar: for they offered them before the LORD, therefore they are hallowed: and they shall be a sign unto the children of Israel."

"And this is the thing that ye shall do, Ye shall utterly destroy every male, and every woman that hath lain by man. hath lain...: Heb. knoweth the lying with man"

"Mine eyes do fail with tears, my bowels are troubled, my liver is poured upon the earth, for the destruction of the daughter of my people; because the children and the sucklings swoon in the streets of the city."

"And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword."

"The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy both the young man and the virgin, the suckling also with the man of gray hairs."

"Do they provoke me to anger? saith the LORD: do they not provoke themselves to the confusion of their own faces?"

"For death is come up into our windows, and is entered into our palaces, to cut off the children from without, and the young men from the streets."
