Jeremiah 2:14-17

14Is Israel a servant? is he a homeborn slave? why is he spoiled?1 15The young lions roared upon him, and yelled, and they made his land waste: his cities are burned without inhabitant.2 16Also the children of Noph and Tahapanes have broken the crown of thy head.3 17Hast thou not procured this unto thyself, in that thou hast forsaken Yhwh thy God, when he led thee by the way?
