Jeremiah 2:15-17

Modern English Version

¹⁵ The young lions roared at him
    and roared loudly,
and they made his land a waste;
    his cities have been destroyed, without inhabitant.
¹⁶ Also the men of Memphis and Tahpanhes
    have shaved the crown of your head.
¹⁷ Have you not brought this on yourself,
    in that you have forsaken the Lord your God
    when He led you in the way?
