Jeremiah 2:5
Douay-Rheims
Thus saith the Lord: What iniquity have your fathers found in me, that they are gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain?
John Chrysostom
Again, elsewhere he says, "What fault have your fathers found in me?" That which is said is great and marvelous, because what he says means, "What wrong have I done?" God tells human beings, "What sin have I committed?"—something that not even slaves tolerate that their master utter.
