Jeremiah 2:8

The Unfaithfulness Of Israel's Ancestors

⁷ And I took you into a fertile land, where you were living on its fruit and its wealth; but when you came in, you made my land unclean, and made my heritage a disgusting thing. ⁸ The priests did not say, Where is the Lord? and those who were expert in the law had no knowledge of me: and the rulers did evil against me, and the prophets became prophets of the Baal, going after things without value. ⁹ For this reason, I will again put forward my cause against you, says the Lord, even against you and against your children's children.
