New Life Version
Jeremiah 2:27-29
New Life Version
27 They say to a tree, ‘You are my father,’ and to a stone, ‘You gave me birth.’ For they have turned their back to Me, and not their face. But in the time of their trouble they will say, ‘Rise up and save us.’ 28 But where are your gods that you made for yourself? Let them come if they can save you when you are in trouble. For you have as many gods as cities, O Judah.
29 “Why do you complain against Me? You have all sinned against Me,” says the Lord.

Jeremiah 2:27-29
New International Version
27 They say to wood,(A) ‘You are my father,’
and to stone,(B) ‘You gave me birth.’
They have turned their backs(C) to me
and not their faces;(D)
yet when they are in trouble,(E) they say,
‘Come and save(F) us!’
28 Where then are the gods(G) you made for yourselves?
Let them come if they can save you
when you are in trouble!(H)
For you, Judah, have as many gods
as you have towns.(I)
29 “Why do you bring charges against me?
You have all(J) rebelled against me,”
declares the Lord.
