Jeremiah 2:22-25
22AlthoughH3588H518 you 1washH3526 yourself with lyeH5427 And 2useH7235 muchH7235 soapH1287, The 3stainH3799 of your iniquityH5771 is beforeH6440 Me,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 4GodH3068.23“5HowH349 can you sayH559, ‘I am not defiledH2930, I have not goneH1980 afterH310 the 6BaalsH1168’? LookH7200 at your wayH1870 in the 7valleyH1516! KnowH3045 whatH4100 you have doneH6213! You are a swiftH7031 youngH1072 camelH1072 8entanglingH8308 her waysH1870,24A 9wildH6501 donkeyH6501 accustomedH3928 to the wildernessH4057, That sniffsH7602 the windH7307 in her passionH185H5315. In the time of her 10heatH8385 whoH4310 can turnH7725 her awayH7725? AllH3605 who seekH1245 her will not becomeH3286 wearyH3286; In her monthH2320 they will findH4672 her.25KeepH4513 your feetH7272 from being unshodH3182 And your throatH1627 from thirstH6773; But you saidH559, ‘11It is 12hopelessH2976! NoH3808! For I have 13lovedH157 strangersH2114, And afterH310 them I will walkH1980.’
