- ye have burned:
- "In that ye provoke me unto wrathª° with the worksª of your hands,ª burning incenseª° unto otherª godsª in the landª of Egypt,ª whither¹¹ ye¹ be goneª° to dwell,ª° that¹ ye might cut yourselves off,ª° and that¹ ye might be¹ a curseª and a reproachª among all¹ the nationsª of the earth?ª" {Jer 44:8} + "But since¹¹ we left offª° to burn incenseª° to the queenª of heaven,ª and to pour outª° drink offeringsª unto her, we have wantedª° all¹ [things], and have been consumedª° by the swordª and by the famine.ª" {Jer 44:18} + "¹ The incenseª that¹ ye burnedª° in the citiesª of Judah,ª and in the streetsª of Jerusalem,ª ye,¹ and your fathers,ª your kings,ª and your princes,ª and the peopleª of the land,ª did not¹ the LORDª rememberª° them, and cameª° it [not] into¹ his mind?ª" {Jer 44:21} + "For¹¹ this¹ cityª hath been¹ to me [as] a provocation¹ of mine angerª and of¹ my furyª from¹ the dayª that¹ they builtª° it even unto¹ this¹ day;ª that I should removeª° it from before¹¹ my face,ª ... And they have turnedª° unto¹ me the back,ª and not¹ the face:ª though I taughtª° them, rising up earlyª° and teachingª° [them], yet they have not¹ hearkenedª° to receiveª° instruction.ª" {Jer 32:31-33} + "But they mockedª°¹ the messengersª of God,ª and despisedª° his words,ª and misusedª° his prophets,ª until¹ the wrathª of the LORDª aroseª° against his people,ª till¹ [there was] no¹ remedy.ª" {2Ch 36:16} + "Jerusalemª hath grievously² sinned;ª°¹ therefore¹¹ she is¹ removed:ª all¹ that honouredª° her despise²°¹ her, because¹ they have seenª° her nakedness:ª yea,¹ she¹ sigheth,ª° and turnethª° backward.ª" {Lam 1:8} + "Butª I [say], thatª the things whichª the¹ Gentilesª sacrifice,ª° they sacrificeª° to devils,ª andª notª to God:ª andª I wouldª° notª that yeª should haveª° fellowshipª with devils.ª" {1Co 10:20} + "Andª whatª agreementª hath the templeª of Godª withª idols?ª forª yeª areª° the templeª of the livingª° God;ª asª Godª hath said,ª°² I will dwellª° inª them,ª andª walk inª° [them]; andª I will beª° theirª God,ª andª theyª shall beª° myª people.ª" {2Co 6:16}
