- ગુજરાતી — યર્મિયા ૨:૮
- યાજકોએ કદી પૂછ્યું નથી કે, “યહોવાહ ક્યાં છે?” શાસ્ત્રના જાણકારોએ મને ઓળખ્યો નથી. અને અધિકારીઓએ મારી સામે બળવો કર્યો છે. પ્રબોધકોએ બઆલને નામે પ્રબોધ કર્યો. અને જે હિતકારક નથી તેની પાછળ તેઓ ગયા.
- हिन्दी — यिर्मयाह २:८
- याजकों ने भी नहीं पूछा, ‘यहोवा कहाँ है?’ जो व्यवस्था सिखाते थे वे भी मुझ को न जानते थे; चरवाहों ने भी मुझसे बलवा किया; भविष्यद्वक्ताओं ने बाल देवता के नाम से भविष्यद्वाणी की और व्यर्थ बातों के पीछे चले।
