Jeremiah 18:15-17
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
15 But my people have forgotten me,
they burn incense to false gods;
they have stumbled[a] in their ways,
in the ancient roads,
and have gone into bypaths,
not the highway,
16 making their land a horror,
a thing to be hissed at for ever.
Every one who passes by it is horrified
and shakes his head.
17 Like the east wind I will scatter them
before the enemy.
I will show them my back, not my face,
in the day of their calamity.”

New International Version
15 Yet my people have forgotten(A) me;
they burn incense(B) to worthless idols,(C)
which made them stumble(D) in their ways,
in the ancient paths.(E)
They made them walk in byways,
on roads not built up.(F)
16 Their land will be an object of horror(G)
and of lasting scorn;(H)
all who pass by will be appalled(I)
and will shake their heads.(J)
17 Like a wind(K) from the east,
I will scatter them before their enemies;
I will show them my back and not my face(L)
in the day of their disaster.”
