Jeremiah 2:17Holy Bible: Easy-to-Read VersionThis trouble is your own fault. The Lord your God was leading you the right way, but you turned away from him. See the chapter |
I will do these things because the people of Judah have stopped following me. They have made this a place for foreign gods. The people of Judah have burned sacrifices in this place to other gods. The people long ago did not worship those gods. Their ancestors did not worship them. These are new gods from other countries. The kings of Judah filled this place with the blood of innocent children.
