Jeremiah 2:27-28
New American Standard Bible
27 Who say to a tree, ‘You are my father,’
And to a stone, ‘You gave me birth.’
For they have turned their (A)backs to Me,
And not their faces;
But in the (B)time of their [a]trouble they will say,
‘Arise and save us!’
28 But where are your (C)gods
Which you made for yourself?
Let them arise, if they can (D)save you
In the time of your [b]trouble!
For (E)as many as the number of your cities
Are your gods, Judah.

Jeremiah 2:27-28
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)

3 For the customs of the peoples are (A)futile;
For (B)it is wood cut from the forest,
The work of the hands of a craftsman with a cutting tool.
