Jeremiah 2:1-3

Modern English Version

Thus says the Lord:

I remember you, the kindness of your youth,
    the love of your espousals,
when you followed Me in the wilderness,
    in a land that was not sown.
³ Israel is holy to the Lord,
    and the first fruits of His harvest.
All who eat of it will become guilty;
    disaster will come upon them,
    says the Lord.
