Jeremiah 2:6-8
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
6 They did not ask, “Where is the Lord
who brought us up from the land of Egypt,
Who led us through the wilderness,
through a land of wastes and ravines,
A land of drought and darkness,
a land which no one crosses,
where no one dwells?”(A)
7 I brought you into the garden land
to eat its fine fruits,
But you entered and defiled my land,
you turned my heritage into an abomination.(B)
8 The priests did not ask,
“Where is the Lord?”
The experts in the law[a] did not know me:
the shepherds rebelled against me.
The prophets prophesied by Baal,
and went after useless idols.(C)
Notas al pie
- 2:8 Experts in the law: the priests. The shepherds: the kings and nobles.

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)
