The verse 12 is found in chapter 19 of Jeremiah. Jeremiah breaks a clay jar in the Valley of Ben-Hinnom as a sign of destruction that cannot be repaired. The place associated with abominable sacrifices will become a scene of judgment. The symbolic action turns an abstract sentence into a physical image of the irreversibility of the approaching disaster.

So will ich mit dieser Stätte, spricht der HERR, und ihren Einwohnern umgehen, daß diese Stadt werden soll gleich wie das Thopheth.
Así haré a este lugar, dice Jehová, y a sus moradores, poniendo esta ciudad como Topheth.
Así haré con este lugar y con sus habitantes —declara Jehová—, y convertiré esta ciudad en un Tofet.
C'est ainsi que je ferai à ce lieu, dit l'Eternel, et à ses habitants, Et je rendrai cette ville semblable à Topheth.
Così farò a questo luogo, dice il Signore, ed a’ suoi abitanti; e ciò, per render questa città simile a Tofet.
Assim farei a este lugar, diz o SENHOR, e aos seus moradores; sim, para pôr a esta cidade como a Tofete.
我必向這地方和其中的居民如此行,使這城與 陀斐特 一樣。這是耶和華說的。
