કેમ કે મારા લોકોએ મારી વિરુદ્ધ બે દુષ્ટ પાપ કર્યાં છે; તેઓએ મને એટલે જે જીવનજળનું ઝરણું છે તેનો ત્યાગ કર્યો છે, અને જેમાં જળ રહી શકતું નથી એવા ટાંકાં તેઓએ પોતાને માટે ખોદ્યા છે!
हिन्दीयिर्मयाह २:१३
क्योंकि मेरी प्रजा ने दो बुराइयाँ की हैं : उन्होंने मुझ जीवन के जल के सोते को त्याग दिया है, और, उन्होंने हौद बना लिए, वरन् ऐसे हौद जो टूट गए हैं, और जिनमें जल नहीं रह सकता। (यिर्म. 17:13)
