Jeremiah 2:15-17

¹⁵ The young lions have roared at him and raised their voices.
    They have made his land waste.
    His cities are burned up, without inhabitant.
¹⁶     The children also of Memphis and Tahpanhes have broken the crown of your head.
¹⁷ “Haven’t you brought this on yourself,
    in that you have forsaken Yahweh your God,^[a] when he led you by the way?
