Jeremiah 2:33

1798–1870
Presbyterian
SCRIPTURE

"How trimmest thou thy way to seek love! therefore even the wicked women hast thou taught thy ways." — Jeremiah 2:33 (ASV)

Why trimmest thou thy way – literally, “Why do you make your way good?” a phrase used here of the pains taken by the Jews to learn the idolatries of foreign nations.

The wicked ones ... – Or, therefore thou hast taught thy ways wickednesses.
