Jeremiah 2:6-8
New King James Version
6 Neither did they say, ‘Where is the Lord,
Who (A)brought us up out of the land of Egypt,
Who led us through (B)the wilderness,
Through a land of deserts and pits,
Through a land of drought and the shadow of death,
Through a land that no one crossed
And where no one dwelt?’
7 I brought you into (C)a bountiful country,
To eat its fruit and its goodness.
But when you entered, you (D)defiled My land
And made My heritage an abomination.
8 The priests did not say, ‘Where is the Lord?’
And those who handle the (E)law did not know Me;
The rulers also transgressed against Me;
(F)The prophets prophesied by Baal,
And walked after things that do not profit.
Jeremiah 2:6-8
New International Version
6 They did not ask, ‘Where is the Lord,
who brought us up out of Egypt(A)
and led us through the barren wilderness,
through a land of deserts(B) and ravines,(C)
a land of drought and utter darkness,
a land where no one travels(D) and no one lives?’
7 I brought you into a fertile land
to eat its fruit and rich produce.(E)
But you came and defiled my land
and made my inheritance detestable.(F)
8 The priests did not ask,
‘Where is the Lord?’
Those who deal with the law did not know me;(G)
the leaders(H) rebelled against me.
The prophets prophesied by Baal,(I)
following worthless idols.(J)
