Jeremiah 2:33-35
Wycliffe Bible
33 What enforcest thou to show thy way good to seek love, which furthermore both hast taught thy malices thy ways, (How well thou endeavourest to find thy lovers, even the worst women can learn from thy ways!)
34 and the blood of poor men and innocents is found in thy wings? I found not them in ditches, but in all things which I remembered before. (and the blood of the poor and the innocent is found on thy wings. Yea, it got there not from breaking into houses, but from sacrifices made under every tree.)
35 And thou saidest, I am without sin and innocent; and therefore thy strong vengeance be turned away from me. Lo! I shall strive with thee in doom; for thou saidest, I sinned not. (And still thou saidest, I am without sin and innocent; and so let thy strong vengeance be turned away from me, O Lord. Lo! I shall contend, or shall argue, with thee in judgement; for thou saidest, I did not sin.)

Jeremiah 2:33-35
New International Version
33 How skilled you are at pursuing(A) love!
Even the worst of women can learn from your ways.
34 On your clothes is found
the lifeblood(B) of the innocent poor,
though you did not catch them breaking in.(C)
Yet in spite of all this
35 you say, ‘I am innocent;(D)
he is not angry with me.’
But I will pass judgment(E) on you
because you say, ‘I have not sinned.’(F)
