1Now the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 cameH1961 to meH413, sayingH559, 2“GoH1980 and proclaimH7121 in the hearingH241 of JerusalemH3389 that this is whatH3541H559 the LORDH3068 saysH559:

‘I rememberH2142 the devotionH2617 of your youthH5271,your loveH160 as a brideH3623,how you followed MeH1980H310 in the wildernessH4057,in a landH776 notH3808 sownH2232.3IsraelH3478 was holyH6944 to the LORDH3068,the firstfruitsH7225 of His harvestH8393.AllH3605 who devoured herH398were found guiltyH816;disasterH7451 cameH935 upon themH413,’”declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.

4HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, O houseH1004 of JacobH3290, and allH3605 you familiesH4940 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478. 5This is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saysH559:

“WhatH4100 faultH5766 did your fathersH1 findH4672 in MethatH3588 they strayed so farH7368 from MeH5921?They followedH1980H310 worthless idolsH1892,and became worthless themselvesH1891.6They did notH3808 askH559, ‘WhereH346 is the LORDH3068who brought us upH5927 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714,who ledH1980 usH853 through the wildernessH4057,through a landH776 of desertsH6160 and pitsH7745,a landH776 of droughtH6723 and darknessH6757,a landH776 where noH3808 oneH376 travelsH5674 andH8033 noH3808 oneH120 livesH3427?’
7I broughtH935 youH853 intoH413 a fertileH3759 landH776to eatH398 its fruitH6529 and bountyH2898,but you cameH935 and defiledH2930 My landH776and madeH7760 My inheritanceH5159 detestableH8441.
