Jeremiah 2:17 Context
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. 17Hast thou not procured this vnto thy selfe, in that thou hast forsaken the Lord thy God, when he led thee by the way? 18And now what hast thou to doe in the way of Egypt, to drinke the waters of Sihor? Or what hast thou to doe in the way of Assyria, to drinke the waters of the riuer? 19Thine owne wickednesse shall correct thee, and thy backslidings shall reproue thee: know therefore and see, that it is an euill thing and bitter that thou hast forsaken the Lord thy God, and that my feare is not in thee, saith the Lord GOD of Hostes.
