Jeremiah 2:36-37
World English Bible
36 Why do you go about so much to change your ways?
You will be ashamed of Egypt also,
as you were ashamed of Assyria.
37 You will also leave that place with your hands on your head;
for Yahweh has rejected those in whom you trust,
and you won’t prosper with them.
Jeremiah 2:36-37
International Standard Version
36 Why do you go about changing your mind so much?
You will also be disappointed[a] by Egypt,
just as you were disappointed[b] by Assyria.
37 You will also go out from this place
with your hands over your heads.[c]
For the Lord has rejected those in whom you trust,
and you won’t prosper through them.”
