Jeremiah 2:32 · American Standard Version

Jeremiah 2:32 in context

  1. 30“I have struck your children in vain.
    They received no correction.
    Your own sword has devoured your prophets,
    like a destroying lion.
  2. 31Generation, consider Yahweh’s word.
    Have I been a wilderness to Israel?
    Or a land of thick darkness?
    Why do my people say, ‘We have broken loose.
    We will come to you no more?’
  3. 32“Can a virgin forget her ornaments,
    or a bride her attire?
    Yet my people have forgotten me for days without number.
  4. 33How well you prepare your way to seek love!
    Therefore you have even taught the wicked women your ways.
  5. 34Also the blood of the souls of the innocent poor is found in your skirts.
    You didn’t find them breaking in,
    but it is because of all these things.
