Bible verse
For this city has aroused My wrath and fury from the day it was built until now. Therefore I will remove it from My presence
Jeremiah 32:31 · BSB
The verses around it, from Jeremiah 32.
27 “Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is anything too difficult for Me?
28 Therefore this is what the LORD says: Behold, I am about to deliver this city into the hands of the Chaldeans and of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, who will capture it.
29 And the Chaldeans who are fighting against this city will come in, set it on fire, and burn it, along with the houses of those who provoked Me to anger by burning incense to Baal on their rooftops and by pouring out drink offerings to other gods.
30 For the children of Israel and of Judah have done nothing but evil in My sight from their youth; indeed, they have done nothing but provoke Me to anger by the work of their hands, declares the LORD.
31 For this city has aroused My wrath and fury from the day it was built until now. Therefore I will remove it from My presence
32 because of all the evil the children of Israel and of Judah have done to provoke Me to anger—they, their kings, their officials, their priests and prophets, the men of Judah, and the residents of Jerusalem.
33 They have turned their backs to Me and not their faces. Though I taught them again and again, they would not listen or respond to discipline.
34 They have placed their abominations in the house that bears My Name, and so have defiled it.
35 They have built the high places of Baal in the Valley of Hinnom to make their sons and daughters pass through the fire to Molech—something I never commanded them, nor had it ever entered My mind, that they should commit such an abomination and cause Judah to sin.
