“For my people have forgotten me.They have burned incense to false gods.They have been made to stumble in their waysin the ancient paths,to walk in byways, in a way not built up,”
Jeremiah 18:15 (WEB)
Context Reading
13Therefore Yahweh says:“Ask now among the nations,‘Who has heard such things?’The virgin of Israel has done a very horrible thing. 14Will the snow of Lebanon fail from the rock of the field?Will the cold waters that flow down from afar be dried up? 15For my people have forgotten me.They have burned incense to false gods.They have been made to stumble in their waysin the ancient paths,to walk in byways, in a way not built up, 16to make their land an astonishment,and a perpetual hissing.Everyone who passes by it will be astonished,and shake his head. 17I will scatter them as with an east wind before the enemy.I will show them the back, and not the face,in the day of their calamity.
