Jeremias 2:26-28

26 As is the shame of a thief when he is caught, so shall the children of Israel be ashamed; they, and their kings, and their princes, and their priests, and their prophets.
27 They said to a stock, Thou art my father; and to a stone, Thou has begotten me: and they have turned backs to me, and not their faces: yet in the time of their afflictions they will say, Arise, and save us.
28 And where are thy gods, which thou madest for thyself? will they arise and save in the time of thine affliction? for according to the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Juda; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem they sacrificed to Baal.
