Jeremiah 2:14
Jeremiah 2:14 American Standard Version (ASV)
Is Israel a servant? is he a home-born slave? why is he become a prey?
Jeremiah 2:14-17 The Message (MSG)
“Isn’t Israel a valued servant, born into a family with place and position? So how did she end up a piece of meat fought over by snarling and roaring lions? There’s nothing left of her but a few old bones, her towns trashed and deserted. Egyptians from the cities of Memphis and Tahpanhes have broken your skulls. And why do you think all this has happened? Isn’t it because you walked out on your God just as he was beginning to lead you in the right way?
