Jeremiah 18:14-16
International Standard Version
Jeremiah 18:14-16
International Standard Version
14 Does the snow of Lebanon
ever vanish from its rocky slopes?[a]
Or does the cold water from a foreign land
ever cease to flow?
15 Yet my people have forgotten me,
and they burn incense to worthless idols
that make them stumble in their journey
on the ancient paths.
They walk on trails,
on a way that is not built up.
16 They make their land into a desolate place,
an object of lasting scorn.[b]
All who pass by will be appalled
and will shake their heads.[c]
