Jeremiah 2:3
New American Standard Bible 1995
3 “Israel was (A)holy to the Lord,
The (B)first of His harvest.
(C)All who ate of it became guilty;
Evil came upon them,” declares the Lord.’”
Jeremiah 50:11-12
New American Standard Bible 1995
11 “Because you are glad, because you are jubilant,
O you who (A)pillage My heritage,
Because you skip about [a]like a threshing (B)heifer
And neigh like [b]stallions,
12 Your (C)mother [c]will be greatly ashamed,
She who gave you birth [d]will be humiliated.
Behold, she will be the least of the nations,
A (D)wilderness, a parched land and a desert.
