Jeremiah 2:28-30

Easy-to-Read Version

²⁹ “Why do you argue with me?
    You have all turned against me.”
    This message was from the Lord.
³⁰ “I punished you people of Judah,
    but it did not help.
You did not come back
    when you were punished.
With your swords you killed the prophets who came to you.
    Like a dangerous lion, you killed the prophets.”
