Jeremiah 2:26-27
English Standard Version
26 “As a thief is shamed when caught,
so the house of Israel shall be shamed:
(A)they, their kings, their officials,
their priests, and their prophets,
27 who say to a tree, ‘You are my father,’
and to a stone, ‘You gave me birth.’
For they have turned their back to me,
and not their face.
But (B)in the time of their trouble they say,
‘Arise and save us!’
Isaiah 57:6-10
English Standard Version
6 Among the smooth stones of (A)the valley is your portion;
they, they, are your lot;
to them you have poured out a drink offering,
you have brought a grain offering.
Shall I relent for these things?
7 (B)On a high and lofty mountain
you have set your bed,
and there you went up to offer sacrifice.
8 Behind the door and the doorpost
you have set up your memorial;
for, deserting me, (C)you have uncovered your bed,
you have gone up to it,
(D)you have made it wide;
and you have made a covenant for yourself with them,
you have loved their bed,
you have looked on nakedness.[a]
9 You journeyed to the king with oil
and multiplied your perfumes;
(E)you sent your envoys far off,
and sent down even to Sheol.
10 You were wearied with the length of your way,
(F)but you did not say, “It is hopeless”;
you found new life for your strength,
and so you were not faint.[b]
