Jeremiah 2:34-36
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
34 And in thy skirts is found the blood of the souls of the poor and innocent? not in ditches have I found them, but in all places, which I mentioned before.
35 And thou hast said: I am without sin and am innocent: and therefore let thy anger be turned away from me. Behold, I will contend with thee in judgement, because thou hast said: I have not sinned.
36 How exceeding base art thou become, going the same ways over again! and thou shalt be ashamed of Egypt, as thou wast ashamed of Assyria.

Jeremiah 2:34-36
New International Version
34 On your clothes is found
the lifeblood(A) of the innocent poor,
though you did not catch them breaking in.(B)
Yet in spite of all this
35 you say, ‘I am innocent;(C)
he is not angry with me.’
But I will pass judgment(D) on you
because you say, ‘I have not sinned.’(E)
36 Why do you go about so much,
changing(F) your ways?
You will be disappointed by Egypt(G)
as you were by Assyria.
