Jeremiah 2:1-3
Authorized (King James) Version
2 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2 Go and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith the Lord;
I remember thee, the kindness of thy youth,
the love of thine espousals,
when thou wentest after me in the wilderness,
in a land that was not sown.
3 Israel was holiness unto the Lord,
and the firstfruits of his increase:
all that devour him shall offend;
evil shall come upon them, saith the Lord.
