Jeremiah 2:26-29

26As the thiefH1590 is ashamedH954 when he is foundH4672, soH3651 is the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 ashamedH954; they, their kingsH4428, their princesH8269, and their priestsH3548, and their prophetsH5030; 27who sayH559 to a stock, Thou art my fatherH1; and to a stoneH68, Thou hast broughtH3205 me forthH3205: for they have turnedH6437 their backH6437 unto me, and not their faceH6440; but in the timeH6256 of their troubleH7451 they will sayH559, AriseH6965, and saveH3467 us. 28But whereH834 are thy godsH430 that thou hast madeH6213 thee? let them ariseH6965, if they can saveH3467 thee in the timeH6256 of thy troubleH7451: for according to the numberH4557 of thy citiesH5892 are thy godsH430, O JudahH3063.

29Wherefore will ye contendH7378 with me? ye all have transgressedH6586 against me, saith Jehovah.
