When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and meal offering, I will not accept them; but I will consume them by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence.”

ગુજરાતીયર્મિયા ૧૪:૧૨
જ્યારે એ લોકો ઉપવાસ કરશે, ત્યારે હું એમની વિનંતી સાંભળનાર નથી. જ્યારે તેઓ મને દહનીયાર્પણ અને ખાદ્યાર્પણ ચઢાવે, ત્યારે હું તેઓનો અંગીકાર કરીશ નહિ. પણ હું તલવાર, દુકાળ અને મરકીથી તેઓનો અંત લાવીશ.”
हिन्दीयिर्मयाह १४:१२
चाहे वे उपवास भी करें, तो भी मैं इनकी दुहाई न सुनूँगा, और चाहे वे होमबलि और अन्नबलि चढ़ाएँ, तो भी मैं उनसे प्रसन्न न होऊँगा; मैं तलवार, अकाल और मरी के द्वारा इनका अन्त कर डालूँगा।” (यहे. 8:18)

In context

10The LORD says to this people: “Even so they have loved to wander. They have not restrained their feet. Therefore the LORD does not accept them. Now he will remember their iniquity, and punish them for their sins.”

11The LORD said to me, “Don’t pray for this people for their good.

12When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and meal offering, I will not accept them; but I will consume them by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence.”

13Then I said, “Ah, Lord GOD! Behold, the prophets tell them, ‘You will not see the sword, neither will you have famine; but I will give you assured peace in this place.’”

14Then the LORD said to me, “The prophets prophesy lies in my name. I didn’t send them. I didn’t command them. I didn’t speak to them. They prophesy to you a lying vision, divination, and a thing of nothing, and the deceit of their own heart.
