New Testament

Jeremiah 2:11-15 Modern English Version (MEV)

11. Has a nation changed their gods,though they are not gods?But My people have changed their gloryfor that which does not profit.

12. Be astonished at this, O heavens,and be horribly afraid, be very desolate,says the Lord.

13. For My people have committed two evils.They have forsaken Me,the fountain of living waters,and hewed out for themselves cisterns,broken cisterns, that can hold no water.

14. Is Israel a servant? Is he a homeborn slave?Why has he been plundered?

15. The young lions roared at himand roared loudly,and they made his land a waste;his cities have been destroyed, without inhabitant.
