Jeremiah 2:33-35
New American Standard Bible
33 How well you prepare your way
To seek love!
Therefore even to the wicked women
You have taught your ways.
34 Also on your skirts is found
The (A)lifeblood of the innocent poor;
You did not find them (B)breaking in.
But in spite of all these things,
35 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.’
Jeremiah 2:33-35
International Standard Version
33 How well you perfect your techniques[a] for seeking love.
Therefore you can teach even the most immoral women[b] your techniques.[c]
34 On your skirts is found the lifeblood of the innocent poor,
even though you didn’t catch them breaking in.
Yet despite all these things,
35 you say, ‘I’m innocent.
Surely his anger has turned away from me.’”
“I’m about to bring charges against you[d]
because you say, ‘I haven’t sinned.’
