Jeremiah 2:16-18

Modern English Version

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?
¹⁸ And now what are you doing in the way of Egypt,
    to drink the waters of the Nile?
Or what are you doing in the way of Assyria,
    to drink the waters of the River?
