STILL BEING BEGUILED

Then all the men which knew that their women had burned incense unto other elohiym, and all the women that stood by, a great multitude, even all the people that dwelt in the land of Mitsrayim, in Pathroc, answered Yirmeyahu, saying, As for the word that you have spoken unto us in the name of Yahuah, we will not hearken unto you. But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goes forth out of our own mouth, to burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the cities of Yahudah, and in the streets of Yerushalayim: for then had we plenty of victuals, and were well, and saw no evil. But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine. And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings unto her, did we make her sacrificial wafers to worship her, and pour out drink offerings unto her, without our men? Then Yirmeyahu said unto all the people, to the men, and to the women, and to all the people which had given him that answer, saying,
The incense that ye burned in the cities of Yahudah, and in the streets of Yerushalayim, ye, and your fathers, your kings, and your princes, and the people of the land, did not Yahuah remember them, and came it not into his mind? So that Yahuah could no longer bear, because of the evil of your doings, and because of the abominations which ye have committed; therefore is your land a desolation, and an astonishment, and a curse, without an inhabitant, as at this day. Because ye have burned incense, and because ye have sinned against Yahuah, and have not obeyed the voice of Yahuah, nor walked in his Torah, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil is happened unto you, as at this day. Moreover Yirmeyahu said unto all the people, and to all the women, Hear the Word of Yahuah, all Yahudah that are in the land of Mitsrayim: Thus says Yahuah-Tseva'oth, the Elohai of Yashar'el, saying; Ye and your women have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hand, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her: ye will surely accomplish your vows, and surely perform your vows. Therefore hear ye the Word of Yahuah, all Yahudah that dwell in the land of Mitsrayim; Behold, I have sworn by my great name, says Yahuah, that my name shall no more be named in the mouth of any man of Yahudah in all the land of Mitsrayim, saying, Adonai Yahuah lives.
Behold, I will watch over them for evil, and not for good: and all the men of Yahudah that are in the land of Mitsrayim shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them. Yet a small number that escape the sword shall return out of the land of Mitsrayim into the land of Yahudah, and all the remnant of Yahudah, that are gone into the land of Mitsrayim to sojourn there, shall know whose words shall stand, mine, or theirs.
