Jeremiah 18:15-17

Complete Jewish Bible

¹⁵ No, but my people have forgotten me
and offer incense to nothings.
This causes them to stumble
as they walk the ancient paths;
they leave the highway
to walk on side-trails.
¹⁶ Thus they make their land an object of horror
and ongoing ridicule.
Passers-by shake their heads,
appalled, every one.
¹⁷ Like a strong east wind, I will scatter them
before the enemy.
I will see their back, not their face,
on their day of disaster.’”
