Then I will cut Israel off from the land. It is the land I gave them. I will turn my back on this temple. I will do it even though I have set it apart for my Name to be there. Then Israel will be hated by all of the nations. They will laugh and joke about Israel.

Verse Explanation
God explained that Israel would be removed from the land and the Temple itself would become a symbol of judgment rather than blessing if the people abandoned Him. This was a shocking warning because the Temple represented God's presence among Israel.
History
Jerusalem and the Temple were destroyed by Babylon in 586 BC, fulfilling this warning.
