Jeremiah 2:22-24

New Catholic Bible

²² Even if you would scrub yourself with lye
    and use soap in great abundance,
the stain of your guilt
    would still be clearly visible to me,
    says the Lord God.
²³ How can you say, “I am not defiled;
    I have not gone after the Baals”?
Recall your conduct in the valley;
    realize what you have done:
you have been like a restless she-camel
²⁴     sniffing the wind in her lust;
    who can restrain her ardor?
No males should exhaust themselves seeking her;
    in her month they will find her.
