Jeremiah 2:9-13
9“Therefore I will still 1contend with you,” declares the Lord, “And I will contend with your sons’ sons.10For 2cross to the coastlands of 3Kittim and see, And send to 4Kedar and observe closely, And see if there has been anything like this!11Has a nation changed gods, When 5they were not gods? But My people have 6exchanged their glory For that which is of no benefit.12Be appalled at this, 7you heavens, And shudder, be very desolate,” declares the Lord.13“For My people have committed two evils: They have abandoned Me, The 8fountain of living waters, To carve out for themselves 9cisterns, Broken cisterns That do not hold water.
