Unchecked Copy BoxJer 7:26 - Yet they hearkened not to me, nor inclined their ear, but hardened their neck: they did worse than their fathers.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 7:27 - Therefore thou shalt speak all these words to them; but they will not hearken to thee: thou shalt also call to them; but they will not answer thee.

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 7:33 - And the carcasses of this people shall be food for the fowls of heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; and none shall frighten them away.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 7:34 - Then will I cause to cease from the cities of Judah, and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride: for the land shall be desolate.
