Jeremiah 2:14 Context
12Be astonished, O yee heauens, at this, and be horribly afraid, be yee very desolate, saith the Lord. 13For my people haue committed two euils: they haue forsaken me, the fountaine of liuing waters, and hewed them out cisternes, broken cisternes that can hold no water. 14¶ Is Israel a seruant? is he a home-borne slaue? why is he spoiled? 15The young lyons roared vpon him and yelled, and they made his land waste: his cities are burnt without inhabitant. 16Also the children of Noph and Tahapanes haue broken the crowne of thy head.
