Jeremiah 2:5-7

World English Bible

“What unrighteousness have your fathers found in me,
    that they have gone far from me,
and have walked after worthless vanity,
    and have become worthless?
⁶ They didn’t say, ‘Where is Yahweh who brought us up out of the land of Egypt,
    who led us through the wilderness,
    through a land of deserts and of pits,
    through a land of drought and of the shadow of death,
    through a land that no one passed through,
    and where no man lived?’
⁷ I brought you into a plentiful land
    to eat its fruit and its goodness;
but when you entered, you defiled my land,
    and made my heritage an abomination.
