Jeremiah 2:34-36

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³⁴ Also on your skirts is found
    the lifeblood of guiltless poor;
you did not find them breaking in.
    Yet in spite of all these things
³⁵ you say, ‘I am innocent;
    surely his anger has turned from me.’
Behold, I will bring you to judgment
    for saying, ‘I have not sinned.’
³⁶ How lightly you gad about,
    changing your way!
You shall be put to shame by Egypt
    as you were put to shame by Assyria.
