Jeremiah 2:9-19

9Wherefore I will yet pleadH7378 with you, saithH5002 YhwhH3068, and with your children’sH1121 childrenH1121 will I pleadH7378. 10For pass overH5674 the islesH339 of ChittimH3794, and seeH7200; and sendH7971 unto KedarH6938, and considerH995 diligentlyH3966, and seeH7200 if there be such a thing.1 11Hath a nationH1471 changedH3235 their godsH430, which are yet no godsH430? but my peopleH5971 have changedH4171 their gloryH3519 for that which doth not profitH3276. 12Be astonishedH8074, O ye heavensH8064, at this, and be horribly afraidH8175, be ye veryH3966 desolateH2717, saithH5002 YhwhH3068. 13For my peopleH5971 have committedH6213 twoH8147 evilsH7451; they have forsakenH5800 me the fountainH4726 of livingH2416 watersH4325, and hewed them outH2672 cisternsH877, brokenH7665 cisternsH877, that can holdH3557 no waterH4325.

14Is IsraelH3478 a servantH5650? is he a homebornH3211H1004 slave? whyH4069 is he spoiledH957?2 15The young lionsH3715 roaredH7580 upon him, and yelledH6963H5414, and they madeH7896 his landH776 wasteH8047: his citiesH5892 are burnedH3341 without inhabitantH3427.3 16Also the childrenH1121 of NophH5297 and TahapanesH8471 have brokenH7462 the crown of thy headH6936.4 17Hast thou not procuredH6213 this unto thyself, in that thou hast forsakenH5800 YhwhH3068 thy GodH430, whenH6256 he ledH3212 thee by the wayH1870? 18And now what hast thou to do in the wayH1870 of EgyptH4714, to drinkH8354 the watersH4325 of SihorH7883? or what hast thou to do in the wayH1870 of AssyriaH804, to drinkH8354 the watersH4325 of the riverH5104? 19Thine own wickednessH7451 shall correctH3256 thee, and thy backslidingsH4878 shall reproveH3198 thee: knowH3045 therefore and seeH7200 that it is an evilH7451 thing and bitterH4751, that thou hast forsakenH5800 YhwhH3068 thy GodH430, and that my fearH6345 is not in thee, saithH5002 the LordH136 YhwhH3069 of ArmiesH6635.
