Read in context

Jeremiah 32:27–31 · Berean Standard Bible

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
