Jeremiah 44:4

4 Yet time and again I sent you all my servants the prophets, saying, "Don't do these detestable things that I hate."

Jeremiah 44:4 In-Context

2 The LORD of heavenly forces, the God of Israel, proclaims: You have seen the disaster I brought on Jerusalem and the towns of Judah. They are now a wasteland with no one left
3 because of their evil ways. They have angered me by making offerings and worshipping other gods that neither they nor you nor your ancestors knew.
4 Yet time and again I sent you all my servants the prophets, saying, "Don't do these detestable things that I hate."
5 But they wouldn't listen or pay attention or turn from their evil ways. They continued making offerings to other gods.
6 So my fierce anger poured out and blazed against the towns of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem. And they were reduced to an utter wasteland, as they are today.
