What wilt thou say when he shall punish thee? for thou hast taught them [to be] captains, [and] as chief over thee: shall not sorrows take thee, as a woman in travail? (13:21) And if thou say in thine heart, Wherefore come these things upon me? For the greatness of thine iniquity are thy skirts discovered, [and] thy heels made bare (13:22) Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? [then] may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil (13:23) Therefore will I scatter them as the stubble that passeth away by the wind of the wilderness (13:24) This [is] thy lot, the portion of thy measures from me, saith the Lord; because thou hast forgotten me, and trusted in falsehood (13:25) Therefore will I discover thy skirts upon thy face, that thy shame may appear (13:26) I have seen thine adulteries, and thy neighings, the lewdness of thy whoredom, [and] thine abominations on the hills in the fields. Woe unto thee, O Jerusalem! wilt thou not be made clean? when [shall it] once [be]?
(13:27)
