Jeremiah 2:32-37 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

32. A young woman does not forget her jewelry.A bride does not forget the decorations for her dress.But my people have forgotten mefor more days than can be counted!

33. You really know how to chase after love.Even the worst women can learn evil ways from you.

34. You have blood on your clothes.It is the blood of the poor and innocent people.You killed them,but they weren’t thieves you had caught breaking in.You do all these things,

35. but you say, ‘I am innocent.God is not angry with me.’But I will judge you guilty of lying.It is because you say, ‘I have not sinned.’

36. It is so easy for you to change your mind.Assyria let you down.And Egypt will let you down, too.

37. You will eventually leave that place.And, like captives, your hands will be on your head.You trusted those countries.But you will not be helped by them.This is because the Lord has rejected them.
