“If you say in your heart,“Why have these things come on me?”Your skirts are uncovered because of the greatness of your iniquity,and your heels suffer violence.”
Jeremiah 13:22 (WEB)
Context Reading
20Lift up your eyes,and see those who come from the north.Where is the flock that was given to you,your beautiful flock? 21What will you say when he sets over you as head those whom you have yourself taught to be friends to you?Won’t sorrows take hold of you, as of a woman in travail? 22If you say in your heart,“Why have these things come on me?”Your skirts are uncovered because of the greatness of your iniquity,and your heels suffer violence. 23Can the Ethiopian change his skin,or the leopard his spots?Then may you also do good,who are accustomed to do evil. 24“Therefore I will scatter themas the stubble that passes awayby the wind of the wilderness.
