Jeremiah 10:25

Jer 10:25 Pour out thy fury upon the heathen that know thee not, and upon the families that call not on thy name: for they have eaten up Jacob, and devoured him, and consumed him, and have made his habitation desolate.

Ver. 25. Pour out, &c. ] This is not more votum, than vaticinium; a prayer, than a prophecy.

And upon the families. ] Neglect of family prayer uncovers the roof, as it were, for God’s curse to be rained down upon men’s tables, meals, enterprises, &c.
