Therefore, I will not deliver you again.Go and cry out to the gods you have chosen. Let them deliver you whenever you are oppressed.”But the Israelites said,“ We have sinned. Deal with us as you see fit; only rescue us today!”So they got rid of the foreign gods among them and worshiped the LORD, and he became weary of Israel’s misery.

Jeremiah 2:17-37
Have you not brought this on yourself by abandoning the LORD your God while he was leading you along the way?Now what will you gain by traveling along the way to Egypt to drink the water of the Nile? What will you gain by traveling along the way to Assyria to drink the water of the Euphrates?Your own evil will discipline you; your own apostasies will reprimand you. Recognize how evil and bitter it is for you to abandon the LORD your God and to have no fear of me. This is the declaration of the Lord GOD of Armies.For long ago I broke your yoke; I tore off your chains. You insisted,“ I will not serve!” On every high hill and under every green tree you lay down like a prostitute.I planted you, a choice vine from the very best seed. How then could you turn into a degenerate, foreign vine?Even if you wash with lye and use a great amount of bleach, the stain of your iniquity is still in front of me. This is the Lord GOD’s declaration.How can you protest,“ I am not defiled; I have not followed the Baals”? Look at your behavior in the valley; acknowledge what you have done. You are a swift young camel twisting and turning on her way,a wild donkey at home in the wilderness. She sniffs the wind in the heat of her desire. Who can control her passion? All who look for her will not become weary; they will find her in her mating season.Keep your feet from going bare and your throat from thirst. But you say,“ It’s hopeless; I love strangers, and I will continue to follow them.”Like the shame of a thief when he is caught, so the house of Israel has been put to shame. They, their kings, their officials, their priests, and their prophetssay to a tree,“ You are my father,” and to a stone,“ You gave birth to me.” For they have turned their back to me and not their face, yet in their time of disaster they beg,“ Rise up and save us!”But where are your gods you made for yourself? Let them rise up and save you in your time of disaster if they can, for your gods are as numerous as your cities, Judah.Why do you bring a case against me? All of you have rebelled against me. This is the LORD’s declaration.I have struck down your children in vain; they would not accept discipline. Your own sword has devoured your prophets like a ravaging lion.Evil generation, pay attention to the word of the LORD! Have I been a wilderness to Israel or a land of dense darkness? Why do my people claim,“ We will go where we want; we will no longer come to you”?Can a young woman forget her jewelry or a bride her wedding sash? Yet my people have forgotten me for countless days.How skillfully you pursue love; you also teach evil women your ways.Moreover, your skirts are stained with the blood of the innocent poor. You did not catch them breaking and entering. But in spite of all these thingsyou claim,“ I am innocent. His anger is sure to turn away from me.” But I will certainly judge you because you have said,“ I have not sinned.”How unstable you are, constantly changing your ways! You will be put to shame by Egypt just as you were put to shame by Assyria.Moreover, you will be led out from here with your hands on your head since the LORD has rejected those you trust; you will not succeed even with their help.
