Jeremiah 2:18

2:18 What good will it do you then to go down to Egypt

to seek help from the Egyptians?

What good will it do you to go over to Assyria

to seek help from the Assyrians?

Jeremiah 23:18

23:18 Yet which of them has ever stood in the Lord’s inner circle

so they could see and hear what he has to say?

Which of them have ever paid attention or listened to what he has said?
