Jeremiah 13:22-27

22Suppose you say in your heart, “Why did these things happen to me?” Because of your great iniquity, your skirts are uncovered and your heels suffer violence.

23Can the Ethiopian change his skin? Or the leopard his spots? So, could you do good, that are accustomed to doing evil?

24“Therefore I will scatter them like drifting straw in the desert wind.

25This is your lot, the portion measured for you from Me.” It is a declaration of Adonai. “For you have forgotten Me and trusted in falsehood.

26Therefore I will also uncover your skirts over your face, expose your shame.

27Your adulteries, your lustful neighings, the lewdness of your prostitution— on the hills in the field I have seen your loathsome acts. Oy you, Jerusalem! You are unclean! How much longer?”
