They made his land waste;
His cities are burned, without inhabitant.
In that you have forsaken the Lord your God
When bHe led you in the way?
To drink the waters of1 bSihor?
Or why take the road to cAssyria,
To drink the waters of the River?
And your backslidings will rebuke you.
Know therefore and see that it is an evil and bitter thing
That you have forsaken the Lord your God,
And the1 fear of Me is not in you,”
Says the Lord God of hosts.
And byou said, ‘I will not transgress,’
When con every high hill and under every green tree
You lay down, dplaying the harlot.
| << Jeremiah 2:16 | Jeremiah 2:18 >> |
