Sin Brings Its Own Punishment

Jeremiah 2:14-19

Is Israel a bondman, or a homeborn slave? why then is he become a prey?

The lions have roared upon him, and have made a noise, they have made his land a wilderness: his cities are burnt down, and there is none to dwell in them.

The children also of Memphis, and of Taphnes have defloured thee, even to the crown of the head.

Hath not this been done to thee, because thou hast forsaken the Lord thy God at that time, when he led thee by the way?

And now what hast thou to do in the way of Egypt, to drink the troubled water? And what hast thou to do with the way of the Assyrians, to drink the water of the river?

Thy own wickedness shall reprove thee, and thy apostasy shall rebuke thee. Know thou, and see that it is an evil and a bitter thing for thee, to have left the Lord thy God, and that my fear is not with thee, saith the Lord the God of hosts.
