Jeremiah 5:18-19

The Voice

(to Jeremiah) ¹⁸ But even then, I will not destroy your people completely. ¹⁹ So when they ask you, “Why has the Eternal done this to us? Why would our one True God treat us this way?” remind them and speak to them My words: “Because you have rejected Me and bowed down to foreign gods in a land that was yours, now you will bow down to a foreign people in a land that is not yours.”
