Jeremiah 2:2-4

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

I remember the loyalty of your youth,^(A)
your love as a bride –
how you followed me in the wilderness,
in a land not sown.
³ Israel was holy to the Lord,^(B)
the firstfruits of his harvest.^(C)
All who ate of it found themselves guilty;^(D)
disaster came on them.’
This is the Lord’s declaration.
