Jeremiah 2:7-12 Webster Bible Translation (WBT)

7. And I brought you into a plentiful country, to eat the fruit of it, and the goodness of it; but when ye entered, ye defiled my land, and made my heritage an abomination.

8. The priests said not, Where is the LORD? and they that handle the law knew me not: the pastors also transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit.

9. Wherefore I will yet plead with you, saith the LORD, and with your children's children will I plead.

10. For pass over the isles of Chittim, and see; and send to Kedar, and consider diligently, and see if there is such a thing.

11. Hath a nation changed their gods, which are yet no gods? but my people have changed their glory for that which doth not profit.

12. Be astonished, O ye heavens, at this, and be horribly afraid, be ye very desolate, saith the LORD.
