when he makes his delight with God.’
Jeremiah 2:8
2:8 Your priests did not ask, ‘Where is the Lord?’
Those responsible for teaching my law did not really know me.
Your rulers rebelled against me.
Your prophets prophesied in the name of the god Baal.
They all worshiped idols that could not help them.

16:26 For what does it benefit a person
if he gains the whole world but forfeits his life? Or what can a person give in exchange for his life?
