Jeremiah 2:11-13
Contemporary English Version
Jeremiah 2:11-13
Contemporary English Version
11 You will find that no nation
has ever abandoned its gods
even though they were false.
I am the true and glorious God,
but you have rejected me
to worship idols.
12 Tell the heavens
to tremble with fear!
13 You, my people, have sinned
in two ways—
you have rejected me, the source
of life-giving water,
and you've tried to collect water
in cracked and leaking pits
dug in the ground.
Jeremiah 2:11-13
New International Version
Jeremiah 2:11-13
New International Version
11 Has a nation ever changed its gods?
(Yet they are not gods(A) at all.)
But my people have exchanged their glorious(B) God
for worthless idols.
12 Be appalled at this, you heavens,
and shudder with great horror,”
declares the Lord.
13 “My people have committed two sins:
They have forsaken(C) me,
the spring of living water,(D)
and have dug their own cisterns,
broken cisterns that cannot hold water.
