Jeremiah 2:34-36
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
34 On your clothing is
the life-blood of the innocent,
you did not find them committing burglary;
35 Nonetheless you say, “I am innocent;
at least, his anger is turned away from me.”
Listen! I will judge you
on that word of yours, “I have not sinned.”
36 How frivolous you have become
in changing your course!
By Egypt you will be shamed,
just as you were shamed by Assyria.(A)
Jeremiah 2:34-36
New International Version
34 On your clothes is found
the lifeblood(A) of the innocent poor,
though you did not catch them breaking in.(B)
Yet in spite of all this
35 you say, ‘I am innocent;(C)
he is not angry with me.’
But I will pass judgment(D) on you
because you say, ‘I have not sinned.’(E)
36 Why do you go about so much,
changing(F) your ways?
You will be disappointed by Egypt(G)
as you were by Assyria.
