Jeremiah 2:10-12
1599 Geneva Bible
10 For go ye to the isles of [a]Chittim, and behold, and send unto [b]Kedar, and take diligent heed, and see whether there be such things.
11 Hath any nation changed their gods, which yet are no gods? but my people have changed their [c]glory, for that which doth not [d]profit.
12 O ye [e]heavens, be astonied at this: be afraid and utterly confounded, saith the Lord.

Jeremiah 2:10-12
New International Version
10 Cross over to the coasts of Cyprus(A) and look,
send to Kedar[a](B) and observe closely;
see if there has ever been anything like this:
11 Has a nation ever changed its gods?
(Yet they are not gods(C) at all.)
But my people have exchanged their glorious(D) God
for worthless idols.
12 Be appalled at this, you heavens,
and shudder with great horror,”
declares the Lord.
