Jeremiah 2:30

In vain have I struck your children ; they took no correction ; your own sword devoured your prophets like a ravening lion .

“In vain I punished your people; they did not respond to correction. Your sword has devoured your prophets like a ravenous lion.

In vain have I smitten your children; they received no correction : your own sword hath devoured your prophets, like a destroying lion.
