Jeremiah 2:5

5 Thus says the Lord:
What wrong did your ancestors find in me
that they went far from me,
and went after worthless things, and became worthless themselves?
Jeremiah 2:6
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
6 They did not say, ‘Where is the Lord
who brought us up from the land of Egypt,
who led us in the wilderness,
in a land of deserts and pits,
in a land of drought and deep darkness,
in a land that no one passes through,
where no one lives?’
Jeremiah 2:31
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
31 And you, O generation, behold the word of the Lord![a]
Have I been a wilderness to Israel,
or a land of thick darkness?
Why then do my people say, ‘We are free,
we will come to you no more’?
