Jeremiah 2:16 In-Context

14 "Is Isra'el a slave, born into serfdom? If not, why has he become plunder?
15 The young lions are roaring at him - how loudly they are roaring! They desolate his country, demolishing and depopulating his cities.
16 The people of Nof and Tachpanches feed on the crown of your head.
17 "Haven't you brought this on yourself by abandoning ADONAI your God when he led you along the way?
18 If you go to Egypt, what's in it for you? Drinking water from the Nile? If you go to Ashur, what's in it for you? Drinking water from the [Euphrates] River?
