Jeremiah 18:13-15
New Living Translation
13 So this is what the Lord says:
“Has anyone ever heard of such a thing,
even among the pagan nations?
My virgin daughter Israel
has done something terrible!
14 Does the snow ever disappear from the mountaintops of Lebanon?
Do the cold streams flowing from those distant mountains ever run dry?
15 But my people are not so reliable, for they have deserted me;
they burn incense to worthless idols.
They have stumbled off the ancient highways
and walk in muddy paths.
Jeremiah 18:13-15
New International Version
13 Therefore this is what the Lord says:
“Inquire among the nations:
Who has ever heard anything like this?(A)
A most horrible(B) thing has been done
by Virgin(C) Israel.
14 Does the snow of Lebanon
ever vanish from its rocky slopes?
Do its cool waters from distant sources
ever stop flowing?[a]
15 Yet my people have forgotten(D) me;
they burn incense(E) to worthless idols,(F)
which made them stumble(G) in their ways,
in the ancient paths.(H)
They made them walk in byways,
on roads not built up.(I)
