Jeremiah 2:1-15

Moreover the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came to me, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Go
<01980> (8800)
and cry
<07121> (8804)
in the ears
<0241>
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
I remember
<02142> (8804)
thee, the kindness
<02617>
of thy youth
<05271>_,
the love
<0160>
of thine espousals
<03623>_,
when thou wentest
<03212> (8800)
after
<0310>
me in the wilderness
<04057>_,
in a land
<0776>
[that was] not sown
<02232> (8803)_.
{thee: or, for thy sake}
Israel
<03478>
[was] holiness
<06944>
unto the LORD
<03068>_,
[and] the firstfruits
<07225>
of his increase
<08393>_:
all that devour
<0398> (8802)
him shall offend
<0816> (8799)_;
evil
<07451>
shall come
<0935> (8799)
upon them, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Hear
<08085> (8798)
ye the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
O house
<01004>
of Jacob
<03290>_,
and all the families
<04940>
of the house
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_:
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
What iniquity
<05766>
have your fathers
<01>
found
<04672> (8804)
in me, that they are gone far
<07368> (8804)
from me, and have walked
<03212> (8799)
after
<0310>
vanity
<01892>_,
and are become vain
<01891> (8799)_?
Neither said
<0559> (8804)
they, Where [is] the LORD
<03068>
that brought us up
<05927> (8688)
out of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
that led
<03212> (8688)
us through the wilderness
<04057>_,
through a land
<0776>
of deserts
<06160>
and of pits
<07745>_,
through a land
<0776>
of drought
<06723>_,
and of the shadow of death
<06757>_,
through a land
<0776>
that no man
<0376>
passed through
<05674> (8804)_,
and where no man
<0120>
dwelt
<03427> (8804)_?
And I brought
<0935> (8686)
you into a plentiful
<03759>
country
<0776>_,
to eat
<0398> (8800)
the fruit
<06529>
thereof and the goodness
<02898>
thereof; but when ye entered
<0935> (8799)_,
ye defiled
<02930> (8762)
my land
<0776>_,
and made
<07760> (8804)
mine heritage
<05159>
an abomination
<08441>_.
{a plentiful...: or, the land of Carmel}
The priests
<03548>
said
<0559> (8804)
not, Where [is] the LORD
<03068>_?
and they that handle
<08610> (8802)
the law
<08451>
knew
<03045> (8804)
me not: the pastors
<07462> (8802)
also transgressed
<06586> (8804)
against me, and the prophets
<05030>
prophesied
<05012> (8738)
by Baal
<01168>_,
and walked
<01980> (8804)
after
<0310>
[things that] do not profit
<03276> (8686)_.
Wherefore I will yet plead
<07378> (8799)
with you, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
and with your children's
<01121>
children
<01121>
will I plead
<07378> (8799)_.
For pass over
<05674> (8798)
the isles
<0339>
of Chittim
<03794>_,
and see
<07200> (8798)_;
and send
<07971> (8798)
unto Kedar
<06938>_,
and consider
<0995> (8708)
diligently
<03966>_,
and see
<07200> (8798)
if there be such a thing. {over: or, over to}
Hath a nation
<01471>
changed
<03235> (8689)
[their] gods
<0430>_,
which [are] yet no gods
<0430>_?
but my people
<05971>
have changed
<04171> (8689)
their glory
<03519>
for [that which] doth not profit
<03276> (8686)_.
Be astonished
<08074> (8798)_,
O ye heavens
<08064>_,
at this, and be horribly afraid
<08175> (8798)_,
be ye very
<03966>
desolate
<02717> (8798)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
For my people
<05971>
have committed
<06213> (8804)
two
<08147>
evils
<07451>_;
they have forsaken
<05800> (8804)
me the fountain
<04726>
of living
<02416>
waters
<04325>_,
[and] hewed them out
<02672> (8800)
cisterns
<0877>_,
broken
<07665> (8737)
cisterns
<0877>_,
that can hold
<03557> (8686)
no water
<04325>_.
[Is] Israel
<03478>
a servant
<05650>_?
[is] he a homeborn
<01004> <03211>
[slave]? why
<04069>
is he spoiled
<0957>_?
{spoiled: Heb. become a spoil?}
The young lions
<03715>
roared
<07580> (8799)
upon him, [and] yelled
<05414> (8804) <06963>_,
and they made
<07896> (8799)
his land
<0776>
waste
<08047>_:
his cities
<05892>
are burned
<03341> (8738)
without inhabitant
<03427> (8802)_.
{yelled: Heb. gave out their voice}
