Jeremiah 2:13
2:13 “Do so because my people have committed a double wrong:
they have rejected me,
the fountain of life-giving water,
and they have dug cisterns for themselves,
cracked cisterns which cannot even hold water.”
Jeremiah 2:1
The Lord Recalls Israel’s Earlier Faithfulness
2:1 The Lord spoke to me. He said:
Jeremiah 28:9
28:9 So if a prophet prophesied
peace and prosperity, it was only known that the
Lord truly sent him when what he prophesied came true.”
Jeremiah 28:2
28:2 “The
Lord God of Israel who rules over all
says, ‘I will break the yoke of servitude
to the king of Babylon.
Jeremiah 7:19-20
7:19 But I am not really the one being troubled!”
says the
Lord. “Rather they are bringing trouble on themselves to their own shame!
7:20 So,” the Lord
God says, “my raging fury will be poured out on this land.
It will be poured out on human beings and animals, on trees and crops.
And it will burn like a fire which cannot be extinguished.”
