Yet thou sayest, Because I am innocent, surely his anger shall turn from me. Behold, I will plead with thee, because thou sayest, I have not sinned.

The verse 35 is found in chapter 2 of Jeremiah. Judah’s unfaithfulness is described through images of prostitution, a degenerate vine, and a female camel in heat. The prophetic language denounces a compulsive pursuit of other gods and political alliances. The nation attempts to justify itself, but its own conduct contradicts it. The chapter ends by showing that trust in human allies will ultimately produce shame.

Doch sprichst du: Ich bin unschuldig; er wende seinen Zorn von mir. Siehe, ich will mit dir rechten, daß du sprichst: Ich habe nicht gesündigt.
Y dices: Porque soy inocente, de cierto su ira se apartó de mí. He aquí yo entraré en juicio contigo, porque dijiste: No he pecado.
dices: “Soy inocente; sin duda su ira se ha apartado de mí”. Mira, entraré en juicio contigo por haber dicho: “No he pecado”.
Malgré cela, tu dis: Oui, je suis innocente! Certainement sa colère s'est détournée de moi! Voici, je vais contester avec toi, Parce que tu dis: Je n'ai point péché.
E pur tu dici: Certo, io sono innocente; l’ira sua si è pure stornata da me. Ecco, io contenderò teco per ciò che tu hai detto: Io non ho peccato.
E ainda dizes: Eu estou inocente; certamente a sua ira se desviou de mim. Eis que entrarei em juízo contigo, porquanto dizes: Não pequei.
你還說:『我無辜; 耶和華的怒氣必定轉離我了。』 看哪,我必審問你; 因你自己說:『我沒有犯罪。』
