Jeremiah 2:30-32
Christian Standard Bible
30 I have struck down your children in vain;
they would not accept discipline.(A)
Your own sword has devoured your prophets(B)
like a ravaging lion.
31 Evil generation,(C)
pay attention to the word of the Lord!
Have I been a wilderness to Israel
or a land of dense darkness?(D)
Why do my people claim,
“We will go where we want;[a]
we will no longer come to you”?
32 Can a young woman forget her jewelry(E)
or a bride her wedding sash?
Yet my people have forgotten me(F)
for countless days.

Jeremiah 2:30-32
Common English Bible
30 I have disciplined your children in vain;
they have rejected my correction.
You have devoured your prophets
like a hungry lion.
31 People of this generation, listen closely to the Lord’s word:
Have I been a wasteland to Israel
or a land of dense darkness?
Why then do my people say,
“We have wandered far away;
we’ll come to you no longer”?
32 Does a young woman forget her jewelry
or a bride her wedding dress?
Yet you have forgotten me days without end!
