Jeremiah 2:26 in Context — Jeremiah 2
24 jumenta selvagem acostumada ao deserto, que aspira o vento por causa do desejo da alma; de seu cio quem a deteria? Todos os que a buscarem não se cansarão; no mês dela a acharão.
25 Impede que teus pés andem descalços, e tua garganta tenha sede. Porém tu disseste: Não há mais esperança; não, porque amo estranhos, e tenho que ir atrás deles.
26 Tal como o ladrão se envergonha quando é pego, assim se envergonharão os da casa de Israel; eles, seus reis, seus príncipes, seus sacerdotes, e seus profetas;
27 Que dizem à madeira: Tu és meu pai; e à pedra: Tu me geraste: pois viraram as costas em minha direção, e não o rosto; porém no tempo de sua angústia dizem: Levanta-te, e livra-nos.
28 Onde estão os teus deuses que fizeste para ti? Eles que se levantem, se é que eles podem te livrar no tempo de tua aflição; porque, ó Judá, os teus deuses foram tantos quantos o número de tuas cidades.
