Jeremiah 2:30-32
New American Standard Bible 1995
30 “(A)In vain I have struck your sons;
They accepted no chastening.
Your (B)sword has devoured your prophets
Like a destroying lion.
31 “O generation, heed the word of the Lord.
Have I been a wilderness to Israel,
Or a (C)land of thick darkness?
Why do My people say, ‘(D)We are free to roam;
We will no longer come to You’?
32 “Can a virgin forget her ornaments,
Or a bride her attire?
Yet My people have (E)forgotten Me
Days without number.
Jeremiah 2:30-32
Legacy Standard Bible
30 “(A)In vain I have struck your sons;
They received no discipline.
Your (B)sword has devoured your prophets
Like a destroying lion.
31 O generation, [a]behold the word of Yahweh.
Have I been a wilderness to Israel
Or a (C)land of thick darkness?
Why do My people say, ‘(D)We are free to roam;
We will no longer come to You’?
32 Can a virgin forget her ornaments,
Or a bride her attire?
Yet My people have (E)forgotten Me
Days without number.
