Jeremiah 13:21 in Context — Jeremiah 13
19 Las ciudades del mediodía fueron cerradas, y no hubo quien las abriese: toda Judá fué trasportada, trasportada fué toda ella.
20 Alzad vuestros ojos, y ved los que vienen del aquilón: ¿dónde está el rebaño que te fué dado, la grey de tu gloria?
21 ¿Qué dirás cuando te visitará? porque tú los enseñaste [á ser] príncipes [y] cabeza sobre ti. ¿No te tomarán dolores como á mujer que pare?
22 Cuando dijeres en tu corazón: ¿Por qué me ha sobrevenido esto? Por la enormidad de tu maldad fueron descubiertas tus faldas, fueron desnudos tus calcañares.
23 ¿Mudará el negro su pellejo, y el leopardo sus manchas? Así también podréis vosotros hacer bien, estando habituados á hacer mal.
