15 “Because My people have forgotten aMe,
They have burned incense to worthless idols.
And they have caused themselves to stumble in their ways,
From the bancient paths,
To walk in pathways and not on a highway,
They have burned incense to worthless idols.
And they have caused themselves to stumble in their ways,
From the bancient paths,
To walk in pathways and not on a highway,
16 To make their land adesolate and a perpetual bhissing;
Everyone who passes by it will be astonished
And shake his head.
Everyone who passes by it will be astonished
And shake his head.
17 aI will1 scatter them bas with an east wind before the enemy;
cI will show them the back and not the face
In the day of their calamity.”
cI will show them the back and not the face
In the day of their calamity.”
Jeremiah Persecuted
18 Then they said, a“Come and let us devise plans against Jeremiah; bfor the law shall not perish from the priest, nor counsel from the wise, nor the word from the prophet. Come and let us attack him with the tongue, and let us not give heed to any of his words.”
