Jeremiah 2:6-8
Evangelical Heritage Version
6 They did not say,
“Where is the Lord, who brought us up from the land of Egypt?
Where is the one who led us through the wilderness,
through a desert wasteland filled with ravines,
through a land of drought and the shadow of death,
a land which no one passes through,
a land where no human being lives?”
7 I brought you into a fertile land,
to eat its fruit and its good things.
But you defiled my land
and made my inheritance repulsive.
8 The priests did not ask, “Where is the Lord?”
The experts in the law did not acknowledge me.
Their shepherds rebelled against me.
The prophets prophesied by Baal
and went after useless idols.

and led us through the barren wilderness,
through a land of deserts(B) and ravines,(C)
a land of drought and utter darkness,
a land where no one travels(D) and no one lives?’
7 I brought you into a fertile land
to eat its fruit and rich produce.(E)
But you came and defiled my land
and made my inheritance detestable.(F)
8 The priests did not ask,
‘Where is the Lord?’
Those who deal with the law did not know me;(G)
the leaders(H) rebelled against me.
The prophets prophesied by Baal,(I)
following worthless idols.(J)
