Judah shall be carried away captive, all of it;
It shall be wholly carried away captive.
And no one shall open them;
Judah shall be carried away captive, all of it;
It shall be wholly carried away captive.

Your beautiful sheep?

Like a woman in1 labor?

a“Why have these things come upon me?”
For the greatness of your iniquity
bYour skirts have been uncovered,
Your heels1 made bare.

23 Can the Ethiopian change his skin or the leopard its spots?
Then may you also do good who are accustomed to do evil.
Then may you also do good who are accustomed to do evil.
