Jeremiah 13:22-24

Tree of Life Version

²² Suppose you say in your heart,
    “Why did these things happen to me?”
    Because of your great iniquity,
        your skirts are uncovered
        and your heels suffer violence.
²³ Can the Ethiopian change his skin?
        Or the leopard his spots?
    So, could you do good,
        that are accustomed to doing evil?
²⁴ “Therefore I will scatter them
    like drifting straw in the desert wind.
