Jeremiah 2:24-26

New American Standard Bible

²⁴ A ^(A)wild donkey accustomed to the wilderness,
That sniffs the wind in her passion.
Who can turn her away in her mating season?
None who seek her will grow weary;
In her month they will find her.
²⁵ Keep your feet from being bare,
And your throat from thirst;
But you said, ‘^(B)It is ^[a]hopeless!
No! For I have ^(C)loved strangers,
And I will walk after them.’

²⁶ “Like the shame of a ^(D)thief when he is discovered,
So the house of Israel is shamed;
They, their kings, their leaders,
Their priests, and their prophets,
