33 “How well you direct your course
    to seek love!
So that even to wicked women
    you have taught your ways.
34 Also on your skirts is found
    (A)the lifeblood of the guiltless poor;
you did not find them (B)breaking in.
    Yet in spite of all these things
35 you say, ‘I am innocent;
    surely his anger has turned from me.’
(C)Behold, I will bring you to judgment
    for (D)saying, ‘I have not sinned.’

33 How well you do on your way to seek love!
    Therefore[a] even to the wicked woman you can teach your ways.

    the blood of the life of the innocent, the poor.
You did not find them in the act of breaking into a house.
    But in spite of all these things,
35 yet you say, ‘But I am innocent,
    surely his anger has turned away from me.’
Look, I am entering into judgment with you
    because of your saying, ‘I have not sinned.’
