Jeremiah 2:12-14
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
12 Be appalled, O heavens, at this;
be shocked; be utterly desolate,
says the Lord,
13 for my people have committed two evils:
they have forsaken me,
the fountain of living water,
and dug out cisterns for themselves,
cracked cisterns
that can hold no water.(A)
14 Is Israel a slave? Is he a homeborn servant?
Why then has he become plunder?(B)
