Jeremiah 2:28

Context

2:28 But where are the gods you made for yourselves?

Let them save you when you are in trouble.

The sad fact is that 1  you have as many gods

as you have towns, Judah.

Jeremiah 2:35

Context

2:35 you say, ‘I have not done anything wrong,

so the Lord cannot really be angry with me any more.’

But, watch out! 2  I will bring down judgment on you

because you say, ‘I have not committed any sin.’

1 tn This is an attempt to render the Hebrew particle כִּי (ki, “for, indeed”) contextually.

2 tn This is an attempt to render the Hebrew particle often translated “behold” (הִנֵּה, hinneh) in a meaningful way in this context. See further the translator’s note on the word “really” in 1:6.
