Jeremiah 2:16 in Context — Jeremiah 2

14 ¿Es Israel siervo? ¿es esclavo? ¿por qué ha sido [dado] en presa?

15 Los cachorros de los leones bramaron sobre él, dieron su voz; y pusieron su tierra en soledad; quemadas están sus ciudades, sin morador.

16 Aun los hijos de Noph y de Taphnes te quebrantaron la mollera.

17 ¿No te acarreó esto tu dejar á Jehová tu Dios, cuando te hacía andar por camino?

18 Ahora pues, ¿qué tienes tú en el camino de Egipto, para que bebas agua del Nilo? ¿y qué tienes tú en el camino de Asiria, para que bebas agua del río?
