Jeremiah 18:15-17

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁵ But my people have forgotten me.
They burn incense as an offering to worthless idols,
and they stumble along the way, on the ancient path.
They go on side roads and not on major highways.
¹⁶ Their land will become desolate
and something to be hissed at forever.
Everyone who will pass by it will be stunned and shake his head.
¹⁷ Like the east wind I will scatter them in front of the enemy.
On the day of their disaster,
I will show them my back, not my face.”
