Jeremiah 5:19-21
Contemporary English Version
Jeremiah 5:19-21
Contemporary English Version
19 And the people who survive will ask, “Why did the Lord our God do such terrible things to us?” Then tell them:
I am the Lord,
but you abandoned me
and worshiped other gods
in your own land.
Now you will be slaves
in a foreign country.
20 Tell these things to each other,
you people of Judah,
you descendants of Jacob.
21 (A) You fools! Why don't you listen
when I speak?
Why can't you understand
