Jeremiah 2:26-28
King James Version
Jeremiah 2:26-28
King James Version
26 As the thief is ashamed when he is found, so is the house of Israel ashamed; they, their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets.
27 Saying to a stock, Thou art my father; and to a stone, Thou hast brought me forth: for they have turned their back unto me, and not their face: but in the time of their trouble they will say, Arise, and save us.
28 But where are thy gods that thou hast made thee? let them arise, if they can save thee in the time of thy trouble: for according to the number of thy cities are thy gods, O Judah.

New International Version
Jeremiah 2:26-28
New International Version
26 “As a thief is disgraced(A) when he is caught,
so the people of Israel are disgraced—
they, their kings and their officials,
their priests(B) and their prophets.(C)
27 They say to wood,(D) ‘You are my father,’
and to stone,(E) ‘You gave me birth.’
They have turned their backs(F) to me
and not their faces;(G)
yet when they are in trouble,(H) they say,
‘Come and save(I) us!’
28 Where then are the gods(J) you made for yourselves?
Let them come if they can save you
when you are in trouble!(K)
For you, Judah, have as many gods
as you have towns.(L)
