Jeremiah 2:29-31

Darby Translation

²⁹ Wherefore would ye contend with me? Ye all have transgressed against me, saith Jehovah.

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

³¹ O generation, mark ye the word of Jehovah. Have I been a wilderness unto Israel, or a land of thick darkness? Wherefore say my people, We have dominion; we will come no more unto thee?
