Jeremiah 2:5
“Again, elsewhere he says, "What fault have your fathers found in me?" That which is said is great and marvelous, because what he says means, "What wrong have I done?" God tells human beings, "What sin have I committed?"—something that not even slaves tolerate that their master utter.”
Source: Septuagint

3Israel was the holy people to the Lord, and the firstfruits of his increase: all that devoured him shall offend; evils shall come upon them, saith the Lord.
4Hear the word of the Lord, O house of Jacob, and every family of the house of Israel.
— Jeremiah 2:5 —
6And they said not, Where is the Lord, who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, who guided us in the wilderness, in an untried and trackless land, in a land which no man at all went through, and no man dwelt there?
7And I brought you to Carmel, that ye should eat the fruits thereof, and the good thereof; and ye went in, and defiled my land, and made my heritage an abomination.
