Jeremiah 2:35-37 New English Translation (NET)

35. you say, ‘I have not done anything wrong,so the Lord cannot really be angry with me any more.’But, watch out! I will bring down judgment on youbecause you say, ‘I have not committed any sin.’

36. Why do you constantly go aboutchanging your political allegiances?You will get no help from Egyptjust as you got no help from Assyria.

37. Moreover, you will come away from Egyptwith your hands covering your faces in sorrow and shamebecause the Lord will not allow your reliance on them to be successfuland you will not gain any help from them.
