Jeremiah 2:34-36
Common English Bible
34 Your garments are stained
with the blood of the innocent poor,
even though you didn’t catch them
breaking and entering.
Yet, despite all this,[a] 35 you still insist,
“I’m innocent;
as a result he will turn his anger away from me.”
Because you claim not to have sinned,
I will pass judgment against you.
36 You change sides so casually!
But Egypt will shame you
no less than Assyria.

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.
