Baruch 2:7 In-Context

5 We sinned against the Lord our God and refused to obey him. Therefore, our nation was conquered, instead of being victorious.

6 "The Lord our God is always righteous, but we and our ancestors are still burdened with our guilt.

7 Even though the Lord punished us as he had threatened,

8 we still did not turn to him and pray that we would abandon our evil thoughts.

9 We did not obey him or live by his just commands, so the Lord brought on us all the punishments he had kept ready for us.
