Jeremiah 2:26-29
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
26 As a thief is shamed when caught,
so the house of Israel shall be shamed:
they, their kings, their officials,
their priests, and their prophets,(A)
27 who say to a tree, “You are my father,”
and to a stone, “You gave me birth.”
For they have turned their backs to me
and not their faces.
But in the time of their trouble they say,
“Come and save us!”(B)
28 But where are your gods
that you made for yourself?
Let them come, if they can save you,
in your time of trouble,
for you have as many gods
as you have towns, O Judah.(C)
29 Why do you complain against me?
You have all rebelled against me,
says the Lord.(D)
Jeremiah 2:26-29
New American Standard Bible
26 “Like the shame of a (A)thief when he is discovered,
So the house of Israel is shamed;
They, their kings, their leaders,
Their priests, and their prophets,
27 Who say to a tree, ‘You are my father,’
And to a stone, ‘You gave me birth.’
For they have turned their (B)backs to Me,
And not their faces;
But in the (C)time of their [a]trouble they will say,
‘Arise and save us!’
28 But where are your (D)gods
Which you made for yourself?
Let them arise, if they can (E)save you
In the time of your [b]trouble!
For (F)as many as the number of your cities
Are your gods, Judah.
29 “Why do you contend with Me?
You have (G)all revolted against Me,” declares the Lord.
