Jeremiah 2:33


← Jeremiah 2:32 Jeremiah 2:33 (KJV) Jeremiah 2:34 →
Can a maid forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? yet my people have forgotten me days without number.
Why trimmest thou thy way to seek love? therefore hast thou also taught the wicked ones thy ways.
Also in thy skirts is found the blood of the souls of the poor innocents: I have not found it by secret search, but upon all these.
