Jeremiah 2:9-12
World English Bible
9 “Therefore I will yet contend with you,” says Yahweh,
“and I will contend with your children’s children.
10 For pass over to the islands of Kittim, and see.
Send to Kedar, and consider diligently,
and see if there has been such a thing.
11 Has a nation changed its gods,
which really are no gods?
But my people have changed their glory for that which doesn’t profit.
12 “Be astonished, you heavens, at this
and be horribly afraid.
Be very desolate,” says Yahweh.

This is the Lord’s declaration.
I will bring a case against your children’s children.(A)
10 Cross over to Cyprus[a](B) and take a look.
Send someone to Kedar(C) and consider carefully;
see if there has ever been anything like this:
11 Has a nation ever exchanged its gods?(D)
(But they were not gods!(E))
Yet My people have exchanged their[b] Glory
for useless idols.(F)
12 Be horrified at this, heavens;(G)
be shocked and utterly appalled.
This is the Lord’s declaration.
