Jeremiah 2:29-37
29Wherefore would ye contendH7378 with me? Ye all have transgressedH6586 against me, saith Jehovah. 30In vain have I smitten your children: they receivedH3947 no correctionH4148. Your own swordH2719 hath devouredH398 your prophetsH5030, like a destroyingH7843 lionH738. 31O generationH1755, mark ye the wordH1697 of Jehovah. Have I beenH1961 a wildernessH4057 unto IsraelH3478, or a landH776 of thick darkness? Wherefore sayH559 my peopleH5971, We have dominion; we will comeH935 no more unto thee? 32Doth a virginH1330 forgetH7911 her ornamentsH5716, a brideH3618 her attire? But my peopleH5971 have forgottenH7911 me daysH3117 without numberH4557. 33HowH4100 dost thou trim thy wayH1870 to seekH1245 loveH160! ThereforeH3651 hast thou alsoH1571 accustomed thy waysH1870 to wickednessH7451. 34Yea, in thy skirtsH3671 is foundH4672 the bloodH1818 of the soulsH5315 of the innocentH5355 poor, whom thou didst not encounter breakingH4290 in, but [it is foundH4672] upon all these. 35And thou sayest, Indeed I am innocent; his angerH639 will turnH7725 from me. Behold, I will enterH8199 into judgmentH8199 with thee because thou sayest, I have not sinnedH2398. 36WhyH4100 dost thou gad about so much, and change thy wayH1870? Thou shalt alsoH1571 be brought to shameH954 by EgyptH4714, as thou wast brought to shameH954 by AssyriaH804. 37Thou shalt indeed goH3318 forthH3318 from her with thy handsH3027 upon thy headH7218; for Jehovah hath rejectedH3988 those thou confidest in, and thou shalt not prosperH6743 by them.
