Jeremiah 17:2 in Context — Jeremiah 17

1 O pecado de Judá está escrito com cinzel de ferro, com ponta de diamante; está esculpido na tábua de seu coração, e nas pontas de vossos altares;

2 Enquanto seus filhos se lembram de seus altares e de seus bosques, junto às árvores verdes, sobre os altos morros.

3 Ó minha montanha no campo! Tua riqueza e todos os teus tesouros darei como despojo por causa do pecado de teus altos em todos teus limites.

4 Assim por causa de ti deixarás de ter a herança que eu te dei, e te farei servir a teus inimigos em uma terra que não conheces; porque acendestes fogo em minha ira, que arderá para sempre.
