Jeremiah 44:25

Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saying; Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hand, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her: ye will surely accomplish your vows, and surely perform your vows.

Cross-reference

Jeremiah 44:15-19 records the people's defiant speech vowing to worship the queen of heaven — this is the precise statement God references and ironically confirms in verse 25.

Jeremiah 44:17 records the people's actual vow to the queen of heaven — exactly what God quotes back to them in this verse.

Jeremiah 44:28 reveals the outcome — only a few escape, proving whose word stands, God's or theirs.

Jeremiah 7:18 describes the same idolatrous practice of making cakes for the queen of heaven — linking the current rebellion to earlier warnings.

Deuteronomy 23:23 commands vows made to the Lord be kept — a stark contrast to the people vowing to a false goddess, highlighting their rebellion.
