Jeremiah 18:16

16 They have ruined their country and brought utter shame on it. All who pass by are shocked and shake their heads.

Jeremiah 18:16 In-Context

14 Does the snow on the mountains of Lebanon ever melt entirely off their rocky cliffs? Do the cool mountain streams ever dry up?
15 Yet my people have forgotten me; they have offered sacrifices to a lie. And so they have stumbled along the way, even along the ancient paths. They have taken side roads, not the main roads.
16 They have ruined their country and brought utter shame on it. All who pass by are shocked and shake their heads.
17 Like a strong east wind, I will scatter them before their enemy. When disaster strikes them, I will show them my back, not my face.
18 Then they said, "Come, let's unite against Jeremiah, for the priest's instruction won't fail, nor will the sage's counsel, nor the prophet's word. Come, let's silence him and pay no attention to his words."
