Jeremiah 2:10-12
Easy-to-Read Version
Jeremiah 2:10-12
Easy-to-Read Version
10 Go across the sea to the Islands of Kittim.[a]
Send someone to the land of Kedar.
Look very carefully.
See if anyone has ever done anything like this.
11 Has any nation ever stopped worshiping their old gods
so that they could worship new gods?
No! And their gods are not really gods at all!
But my people stopped worshiping their glorious God
and started worshiping idols that are worth nothing.
12 “Skies, be shocked at what happened!
Shake with great fear!”
This message is from the Lord.

10 Cross over to the coasts of Cyprus(A) and look,
send to Kedar[a](B) and observe closely;
see if there has ever been anything like this:
11 Has a nation ever changed its gods?
(Yet they are not gods(C) at all.)
But my people have exchanged their glorious(D) God
for worthless idols.
12 Be appalled at this, you heavens,
and shudder with great horror,”
declares the Lord.
