jeremiah 2:7 And I brought you into a plentiful country, to eat the fruit thereof and the goodness thereof; but when ye entered, ye defiled my land, and made mine heritage an abomination.

jeremiah 2:7 "And I brought you into the fruitful land, To eat its fruit and its good things. But you came and defiled My land, And My inheritance you made an abomination.

7. plentiful--literally, "a land of Carmel," or "well-cultivated land": a garden land, in contrast to the "land of deserts" (Jer 2:6).
defiled--by idolatries (Jud 2:10-17; Ps 78:58, 59; 106:38).
you . . . ye--change to the second person from the third, "they" (Jer 2:6), in order to bring home the guilt to the living generation.

jeremiah 2:7 "And I brought you into the fruitful land, To eat its fruit and its good things. But you came and defiled My land, And My inheritance you made an abomination.
