Jeremiah 2:17 in Context — Jeremiah 2

15 Os filhotes de leão bramaram sobre ele, deram sua voz; e tornaram sua terra uma assolação; suas cidades estão queimadas, sem morador;

16 Até os filhos de Nofe e de Tafnes te quebraram o topo da cabeça.

17 Não foi tu mesmo que procuraste isto para ti, de abandonar ao SENHOR teu Deus, enquanto andavas pelo caminho?

18 Ora, o que tu tens a ver com o caminho do Egito, para que bebas água do Nilo? E o que tens a ver com o caminho de Assíria, para que bebas água do rio [Eufrates] ?

19 A tua maldade te castigará e tuas infidelidades te repreenderão; então conhece e vê como é mal e amargo teres abandonado ao SENHOR teu Deus, e não teres tido temor a mim, diz o Senhor DEUS dos exércitos.
