Jeremiah 3:24-25
1599 Geneva Bible
24 For confusion hath devoured our [a]father’s labor, from our youth, their sheep and their bullocks, their sons and their daughters.
25 We lie down in our confusion, and our shame covereth us: [b]for we have sinned against the Lord our God, we and our fathers from our youth, even unto this day, and have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God.

Jeremiah 3:24-25
New International Version
24 From our youth shameful(A) gods have consumed
the fruits of our ancestors’ labor—
their flocks and herds,
their sons and daughters.
25 Let us lie down in our shame,(B)
and let our disgrace cover us.
We have sinned(C) against the Lord our God,
both we and our ancestors;(D)
from our youth(E) till this day
we have not obeyed(F) the Lord our God.”
