Jeremiah 2:27-29

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁷ “saying to a tree, ‘You are my father,’ and to a stone, ‘You have begotten me.’ For they have turned their back to Me, and not their face. But in the time of their trouble, they will say, ‘Arise, and help us!’

²⁸ “But where are your gods that you have made yourself? Let them arise, if they can help you in the time of your trouble. For according to the number of your cities are your gods, O Judah.

²⁹ “Why will you plead with Me? You all have rebelled against Me,” says the LORD.
