Jeremiah 2:24-26

Authorized (King James) Version

²⁴ a wild ass used to the wilderness,
that snuffeth up the wind at her pleasure;
in her occasion who can turn her away?
all they that seek her will not weary themselves;
in her month they shall find her.
²⁵ Withhold thy foot from being unshod,
and thy throat from thirst:
but thou saidst, There is no hope:
no; for I have loved strangers, and after them will I go.
²⁶ As the thief is ashamed when he is found,
so is the house of Israel ashamed;
they, their kings, their princes,
and their priests, and their prophets,
