Jeremiah 13:22-27

22And if you say in your heart,
aWhy have these things come upon me?’
it is for the greatness of your iniquity
that byour skirts are lifted up
and you suffer violence.
23 cCan the Ethiopian change his skin
or dthe leopard his spots?
Then also you can do good
who are accustomed to do evil.
24I will scatter you
Hebrew them
flike chaff
driven by the wind from the desert.
25 gThis is your lot,
the portion I have measured out to you, declares the Lord,
because hyou have forgotten me
and trusted in lies.
26 iI myself will lift up your skirts over your face,
and your shame will be seen.
27I have seen jyour abominations,
your adulteries and kneighings, your lewd whorings,
lon the hills in the field.
Woe to you, O Jerusalem!
How long will it be mbefore you are made clean?”
