Potmos Hetoimos - Valley of Slaughter Lyrics

For the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, saith the LORD
They have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to pollute it

And they have built the high places of Tophet
Which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom
To burn their sons and their daughters in the fire
Which I commanded them not, neither came it into my heart

Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD
That it shall no more be called Tophet
Nor the valley of the son of Hinnom
But the valley of slaughter
For they shall bury in Tophet, till there be no place

And the carcases of this people
Shall be meat for the fowls of the heaven
And for the beasts of the earth
And none shall fray them away

Then will I cause to cease from the cities of Judah
And from the streets of Jerusalem
The voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness
The voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride
For the land shall be desolate

At that time, saith the LORD
They shall bring out the bones of the kings of Judah
And the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests
And the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves

And they shall spread them before the sun, and the moon
And all the host of heaven, whom they have loved
And whom they have served, and after whom they have walked
And whom they have sought, and whom they have worshipped
They shall not be gathered, nor be buried
They shall be for dung upon the face of the earth

And death shall be chosen rather than life
By all the residue of them that remain of this evil family
Which remain in all the places whither I have driven them
Saith the LORD of hosts

(Jeremiah 7:30-8:3)
