Jeremiah 2:2-4

Holman Christian Standard Bible

I remember the loyalty of your youth,^(A)
your love as a bride—
how you followed Me in the wilderness,
in a land not sown.
³ Israel was holy to the Lord,^(B)
the firstfruits of His harvest.^(C)
All who ate of it found themselves guilty;^(D)
disaster came on them.”
This is the Lord’s declaration.

⁴ Hear the word of the Lord, house of Jacob
and all families of the house of Israel.
