| 14 | "Is Israel a slave? Is he a homeborn servant? Why then has he become a prey? | What Israel's unfaithfulness led to. Jr.2.14-19 | הַעֶבֶד יִשְׂרָאֵל אִם־יְלִיד בַּיִת הוּא מַדּוּעַ הָיָה לָבַז׃ |
| 15 | The lions have roared against him, they have roared loudly. They have made his land a waste; his cities are in ruins, without inhabitant. | עָלָיו יִשְׁאֲגוּ כְפִרִים נָתְנוּ קֹולָם וַיָּשִׁיתוּ אַרְצֹו לְשַׁמָּה עָרָיו כ= נִצְּתָה ק= נִצְּתוּ מִבְּלִי יֹשֵׁב׃ | |
| 16 | Moreover, the men of Memphis and Tahpanhes have broken the crown of your head. | גַּם־בְּנֵי־נֹף כ= וְתַחְפְּנֵס ק= וְתַחְפַּנְחֵס יִרְעוּךְ קָדְקֹד׃ | |
| 17 | Have you not brought this upon yourself by forsaking Yahweh your God, when he led you in the way? | הֲלֹוא־זֹאת תַּעֲשֶׂה־לָּךְ עָזְבֵךְ אֶת־יְהוָה אֱלֹהַיִךְ בְּעֵת מֹולִיךֵךְ בַּדָּרֶךְ׃ | |
| 18 | And now what do you gain by going to Egypt, to drink the waters of the Nile? Or what do you gain by going to Assyria, to drink the waters of the Euphrates? | וְעַתָּה מַה־לָּךְ לְדֶרֶךְ מִצְרַיִם לִשְׁתֹּות מֵי שִׁחֹור וּמַה־לָּךְ לְדֶרֶךְ אַשּׁוּר לִשְׁתֹּות מֵי נָהָר׃ | |
| 19 | Your wickedness will chasten you, and your apostasy will reprove you. Know and see that it is evil and bitter for you to forsake Yahweh your God; the fear of me is not in you, says Yahweh GOD of hosts. | תְּיַסְּרֵךְ רָעָתֵךְ וּמְשֻׁבֹותַיִךְ תֹּוכִחֻךְ וּדְעִי וּרְאִי כִּי־רַע וָמָר עָזְבֵךְ אֶת־יְהוָה אֱלֹהָיִךְ וְלֹא פַחְדָּתִי אֵלַיִךְ נְאֻם־אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה צְבָאֹות׃ | |
