Jeremiah 2:3-5

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ Israel is holy to the Lord, the first fruits of his increase: all they that devour him offend: evils shall come upon them, saith the Lord.

⁴ Hear ye the word of the Lord, O house of Jacob, and all ye families of the house of Israel.

⁵ Thus saith the Lord: What iniquity have your fathers found in me, that they are gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain?
