Jeremiah 13:21-27 - The Destiny Of Jerusalem

21 What will thou say when he shall set over thee as head those whom thou thyself have taught to be friends to thee? Shall not sorrows take hold of thee as of a woman in travail? 22 And if thou say in thy heart, Why have these things come upon me? For the greatness of thine iniquity thy skirts are uncovered, and thy heels suffer violence. 23 Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? Then ye also may do good, who are accustomed to do evil. 24 Therefore I will scatter them as the stubble that passes away by the wind of the wilderness. 25 This is thy lot, the portion measured to thee from me, says LORD, because thou have forgotten me, and trusted in falsehood. 26 Therefore I will also uncover thy skirts upon thy face, and thy shame shall appear. 27 I have seen thine abominations, even thine adulteries, and thy neighings, the lewdness of thy whoredom, on the hills, in the field. Woe to thee, O Jerusalem! Thou will not be made clean. How long shall it yet be?
