Baruch 1:18-20

New Catholic Bible

¹⁹ “From the day the Lord brought our forefathers out of Egypt until the present time, we have disobeyed the Lord, our God, and paid no heed to his voice. ²⁰ Even today we continue to be afflicted with the evils and the curse pronounced by the Lord through his servant Moses when he led forth our ancestors out of Egypt to bestow upon us a land flowing with milk and honey.
