Jeremiah 13:25-27
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
25 This is your lot, the portion I have measured out to you—
oracle of the Lord.
Because you have forgotten me,
and trusted in deception,[a](A)
26 I now will strip away your skirts,
so that your shame is visible.(B)
27 Your adulteries, your neighings,
your shameless prostitutions:
On the hills, in the fields
I see your detestable crimes.
Woe to you, Jerusalem! How long will it be
before you are clean?(C)
