Jeremiah 44:17
But we will certainly perform every word that has gone out of our mouth, to burn incense to the queen of the sky and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our princes, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; for then we had plenty of food, and were well, and saw no evil.Jeremiah 44:17 · WEB

- અમે અમારા પૂર્વજો, અમારા રાજાઓ અને અમારા આગેવાનો યહૂદિયાના નગરોમાં અને યરુશાલેમના મહોલ્લાઓમાં જેમ કરતા હતા, તેમ આકાશની રાણીની આગળ ધૂપ બાળવા વિષે તથા તેની આગળ પેયાર્પણો રેડવા વિષે અમે જે માનતા લીધી છે તે પ્રમાણે અમે અવશ્ય કરીશું. કેમ કે તે વખતે અમારી પાસે પુષ્કળ રોટલી હતી. અમે સુખી અને સમૃદ્ધ હતા. અને અમે વિપત્તિ જોઈ ન હતી.
- हिन्दी — यिर्मयाह ४४:१७
- जो-जो मन्नतें हम मान चुके हैं उन्हें हम निश्चय पूरी करेंगी, हम स्वर्ग की रानी के लिये धूप जलाएँगे और तपावन देंगे, जैसे कि हमारे पुरखा लोग और हम भी अपने राजाओं और अन्य हाकिमों समेत यहूदा के नगरों में और यरूशलेम की सड़कों में करते थे; क्योंकि उस समय हम पेट भरकर खाते और भले चंगे रहते और किसी विपत्ति में नहीं पड़ते थे।
In context
15Then all the men who knew that their wives burned incense to other gods, and all the women who stood by, a great assembly, even all the people who lived in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying,
16“As for the word that you have spoken to us in the LORD’s name, we will not listen to you.
17But we will certainly perform every word that has gone out of our mouth, to burn incense to the queen of the sky and to pour out drink offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our princes, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem; for then we had plenty of food, and were well, and saw no evil.
18But since we stopped burning incense to the queen of the sky, and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have lacked all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine.”
19The women said, “When we burned incense to the queen of the sky and poured out drink offerings to her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings to her, without our husbands?”
