Jeremiah 3:23-25
Good News Translation
23 We were not helped at all by our pagan worship on the hilltops. Help for Israel comes only from the Lord our God. 24 But the worship of Baal, the god of shame, has made us lose flocks and herds, sons and daughters—everything that our ancestors have worked for since ancient times. 25 We should lie down in shame and let our disgrace cover us. We and our ancestors have always sinned against the Lord our God; we have never obeyed his commands.”

Jeremiah 3:23-25
New International Version
23 Surely the idolatrous commotion on the hills(A)
and mountains is a deception;
surely in the Lord our God
is the salvation(B) of Israel.
24 From our youth shameful(C) gods have consumed
the fruits of our ancestors’ labor—
their flocks and herds,
their sons and daughters.
25 Let us lie down in our shame,(D)
and let our disgrace cover us.
We have sinned(E) against the Lord our God,
both we and our ancestors;(F)
from our youth(G) till this day
we have not obeyed(H) the Lord our God.”
