Revised Literal Translation
Jeremiah 2:1-5
1Moreover the word of Yhwh came to me, saying, 2Go and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith Yhwh; I remember thee, the kindness of thy youth, the love of thine espousals, when thou wentest after me in the wilderness, in a land that was not sown.1 3Israel was holiness unto Yhwh, and the firstfruits of his increase: all that devour him shall offend; evil shall come upon them, saith Yhwh. 4Hear ye the word of Yhwh, O house of Jacob, and all the families of the house of Israel:
5Thus saith Yhwh, What iniquity have your fathers found in me, that they are gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain?
