Jeremiah 2:28-30

21st Century King James Version

²⁸ But where are thy gods that thou hast made thee? Let them arise if they can save thee in the time of thy trouble; for according to the number of thy cities are thy gods, O Judah.

²⁹ “Why will ye plead with Me? Ye all have transgressed against Me,” saith the Lord.

³⁰ “In vain have I smitten your children; they received no correction. Your own sword hath devoured your prophets like a destroying lion.
