Jeremiah 16:18-20

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁸ And I will repay first their double iniquities, and their sins: because they have defiled my land with the carcasses of their idols, and they have filled my inheritance with their abominations.

¹⁹ O Lord, my might, and my strength, and my refuge in the day of tribulation: to thee the Gentiles shall come from the ends of the earth, and shall say: Surely our fathers have possessed lies, a vanity which hath not profited them.

²⁰ Shall a man make gods unto himself, and there are no gods?
