Jeremiah 2:11-13

New International Reader's Version

¹¹ Has a nation ever changed its gods?
    Actually, they are not even gods at all.
But my people have traded away their glorious God.
    They have traded me for worthless statues of gods.
¹² Sky above, be shocked over this.
    Tremble with horror,”
    announces the Lord.
¹³ “My people have sinned twice.
They have deserted me,
    even though I am the spring of water that gives life.
And they have dug their own wells.
    But those wells are broken.
    They can’t hold any water.
