Jeremiah 2:29-31

29“Why do you contend with Me? You have 1all transgressed against Me,” declares the Lord.30“2In vain I have struck your sons; They accepted no chastening. Your 3sword has devoured your prophets Like a destroying lion.31O generation, heed the word of the Lord. Have I been a wilderness to Israel, Or a 4land of thick darkness? Why do My people say, ‘5We are free to roam; We will no longer come to You’?
