Jeremiah 2:6-8
Legacy Standard Bible
6 They did not say, ‘Where is Yahweh
Who (A)brought us up out of the land of Egypt,
Who (B)led us through the wilderness,
Through a land of deserts and of pits,
Through a land of drought and of the shadow of death,
Through a land that no one crossed
And where no man inhabited?’
7 I brought you into the (C)fruitful land
To eat its fruit and its good things.
But you came and (D)defiled My land,
And My inheritance you made an abomination.
8 The (E)priests did not say, ‘Where is Yahweh?’
And those who handle the law (F)did not know Me;
The [a]shepherds also transgressed against Me,
And the (G)prophets prophesied by Baal
And walked after (H)things that did not profit.
