Jeremiah 2:2-4

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

²Go and proclaim in the hearing of Jerusalem, Thus says the Lord:

I remember the devotion of your youth,
    your love as a bride,
how you followed me in the wilderness,
    in a land not sown.
³Israel was holy to the Lord,
    the first fruits of his harvest.
All who ate of it were held guilty;
    disaster came upon them,
says the Lord.

⁴Hear the word of the Lord, O house of Jacob, and all the families of the house of Israel.
