31. O generation, see ye the word of the Lord. Have I been a wilderness unto Israel? a land of darkness? Why do my people say, We are lords; we will come no more unto thee?
32. Shall the virgin, perchance, forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? yet my people have forgotten me days without number.
33. Why dost thou trim thy way to seek love? therefore thou hast also taught the wicked ones thy ways.
34. Even in thy skirts is found the blood of the souls of the poor innocents; thou didst not find them in any trespass, but by all these things.
35. Yet thou didst say, Because I am innocent, surely his anger shall turn from me. Behold, I will enter into judgment with thee because thou hast said, I did not sin.
