Jeremiah 2:1-7

1Now the word of the LORD came to me, saying, 2“Go and proclaim in the hearing of Jerusalem that this is what the LORD says:

‘I remember the devotion of your youth,your love as a bride,how you followed Me in the wilderness,in a land not sown.3Israel was holy to the LORD,the firstfruits of His harvest.All who devoured herwere found guilty;disaster came upon them,’”declares the LORD.

4Hear the word of the LORD, O house of Jacob, and all you families of the house of Israel. 5This is what the LORD says:

“What fault did your fathers find in Methat they strayed so far from Me?They followed worthless idols,and became worthless themselves.6They did not ask, ‘Where is the LORDwho brought us up from the land of Egypt,who led us through the wilderness,through a land of deserts and pits,a land of drought and darkness,a land where no one travels and no one lives?’
7I brought you into a fertile landto eat its fruit and bounty,but you came and defiled My landand made My inheritance detestable.
