Jeremiah 2:14-17

14“Is Israel 1a slave? Or is he a homeborn servant? Why has he become a prey?15The young 2lions have roared at him, They have 3roared loudly. And they have 4made his land a waste; His cities have been destroyed, without inhabitant.16Also the 5men of 6Memphis and Tahpanhes Have 7shaved the 8crown of your head.17Have you not 9done this to yourself By your forsaking the Lord your God When He 10led you in the way?
