Jeremiah 8:2
2 "They will spread them out to the sun , the moon and to all the host of heaven , which they have loved and which they have served , and which they have gone after and which they have sought , and which they have worshiped . They will not be gathered or buried ; they will be as dung on the face of the ground .

Commentary on Jeremiah 8:1-3
(Read Jeremiah 8:1-3)
Though no real hurt can be done to a dead body, yet disgrace to the remains of wicked persons may alarm those yet alive; and this reminds us that the Divine justice and punishments extend beyond the grave. Whatever befalls us here, let us humble ourselves before God, and seek his mercy.
