Jeremiah 2:33-35
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
33 How well you direct your course
to seek lovers!
So that even to wicked women
you have taught your ways.
34 Also on your skirts is found
the lifeblood of the innocent poor,
though you did not catch them breaking in.
Yet in spite of all these things[a](A)
35 you say, “I am innocent;
surely his anger has turned from me.”
Now I am bringing you to judgment
for saying, “I have not sinned.”(B)

Jeremiah 2:33-35
Holman Christian Standard Bible
33 How skillfully you pursue love;
you also teach evil women your ways.
34 Moreover, your skirts are stained
with the blood of the innocent poor.(A)
You did not catch them breaking and entering.(B)
But in spite of all these things
35 you claim, “I am innocent.(C)
His anger is sure to turn away from me.”
But I will certainly judge you
because you have said, “I have not sinned.”(D)
