Jeremiah 2:7-9

World English Bible

⁷ I brought you into a plentiful land
    to eat its fruit and its goodness;
but when you entered, you defiled my land,
    and made my heritage an abomination.
⁸ The priests didn’t say, ‘Where is Yahweh?’
    and those who handle the law didn’t know me.
The rulers also transgressed against me,
    and the prophets prophesied by Baal
    and followed things that do not profit.
⁹ “Therefore I will yet contend with you,” says Yahweh,
    “and I will contend with your children’s children.
