33 How well you prepare your way
To seek love!
Therefore even [a]the wicked women
You have taught your ways.
34 Also on your skirts is found
The (A)lifeblood of the innocent needy;
You did not find them (B)breaking in.
But in spite of all these things,
35 Yet you said, ‘I am innocent;
Surely His anger is turned away from me.’
Behold, I will (C)enter into judgment with you
Because you (D)say, ‘I have not sinned.’

33 “Why do you beautify your way to seek love?
Therefore you have also taught
The wicked women your ways.
34 Also on your skirts is found
(A)The blood of the lives of the poor innocents.
I have not found it by [a]secret search,
But plainly on all these things.
35 (B)Yet you say, ‘Because I am innocent,
Surely His anger shall turn from me.’
Behold, (C)I will plead My case against you,
(D)Because you say, ‘I have not sinned.’
