Jeremiah 2:23-24

New International Version

²³“How can you say, ‘I am not defiled;^(A)
    I have not run after the Baals’?^(B)
See how you behaved in the valley;^(C)
    consider what you have done.
You are a swift she-camel
    running^(D) here and there,
²⁴a wild donkey^(E) accustomed to the desert,^(F)
    sniffing the wind in her craving—
    in her heat who can restrain her?
Any males that pursue her need not tire themselves;
    at mating time they will find her.

Jeremiah 2:23-24

King James Version

²³How canst thou say, I am not polluted, I have not gone after Baalim? see thy way in the valley, know what thou hast done: thou art a swift dromedary traversing her ways;

²⁴A wild ass used to the wilderness, that snuffeth up the wind at her pleasure; in her occasion who can turn her away? all they that seek her will not weary themselves; in her month they shall find her.

Jeremiah 2:23-24

New King James Version

²³“How^(A) can you say, ‘I am not ^[a]polluted,
I have not gone after the Baals’?
See your way in the valley;
Know what you have done:
You are a swift dromedary breaking loose in her ways,
²⁴A wild donkey used to the wilderness,
That sniffs at the wind in her desire;
In her time of mating, who can turn her away?
All those who seek her will not weary themselves;
In her month they will find her.
