Jeremiah 7:19-22 New Century Version (NCV)

19. But I am not the one the people of Judah are really hurting, says the Lord. They are only hurting themselves and bringing shame upon themselves.

20. “ ‘So this is what the Lord God says: I will pour out my anger on this place, on people and animals, on the trees in the field and the crops in the ground. My anger will be like a hot fire that no one can put out.

21. “ ‘This is what the Lord All-Powerful, the God of Israel, says: Offer burnt offerings along with your other sacrifices, and eat the meat yourselves!

22. When I brought your ancestors out of Egypt, I did not speak to them and give them commands only about burnt offerings and sacrifices.
