Jeremiah 2:30-32
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
30 In vain I have struck down your children;
they accepted no correction.
Your own sword devoured your prophets
like a ravening lion.(A)
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”?(B)
32 Can a young woman forget her ornaments
or a bride her attire?
Yet my people have forgotten me,
days without number.(C)

Jeremiah 2:30-32
Holman 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,
pay attention to the word of the Lord!
Have I been a wilderness to Israel
or a land of dense darkness?(C)
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(D)
or a bride her wedding sash?
Yet My people have forgotten Me(E)
for countless days.
