Jeremiah 13:23-27 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

23. Can Ethiopians change their skin,leopards their spots?As easily would you be able to do good,accustomed to evil as you are.

24. I will scatter them like chaff that flieson the desert wind.

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,

26. I now will strip away your skirts,so that your shame is visible.

27. Your adulteries, your neighings,your shameless prostitutions:On the hills, in the fieldsI see your detestable crimes.Woe to you, Jerusalem! How long will it bebefore you are clean?
