Her Rejection of God’s Love

Listen to this message from the Lord,
    you descendants of Jacob
        and all the families of the descendants of Israel.
This is what the Lord says:
“What did your ancestors find wrong with me
    that they left me,
and pursued worthless things,[a]
    and so they became worthless?

“They didn’t ask, ‘Where is the Lord
    who brought us up from the land of Egypt,
who led us through the wilderness,
    through the land of desert and pits,
through the land of dryness and deep darkness,
    a land that people don’t pass through,
        and where no one lives?’
