Parallel
Jeremiah 2:18
Brenton's English Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
And now what hast thou to do with the way of Egypt, to drink the water of Geon? and what hast thou to do with the way of the Assyrians, to drink the water of rivers?
Now what will you gain on your way to Egypt to drink the waters of the Nile (note: Hebrew of Shihor, a branch of the Nile River)? What will you gain on your way to Assyria to drink the waters of the Euphrates (note: Hebrew the River)?
