And when thou art spoiled, what wilt thou do? Though thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, though thou rentest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair; thy lovers will despise thee, they will seek thy life.

The verse 30 is found in chapter 4 of Jeremiah. The prophet personally expresses the pain of witnessing the devastation of the land. The vision moves from ruined cities to trembling mountains and darkened skies, eventually presenting Jerusalem as a distressed woman. The language combines prophetic observation and lament, showing that announcing judgment does not mean viewing it with indifference.

Deutsch · L1912 Was willst du alsdann tun, du Verstörte? Wenn du dich schon mit Purpur kleiden und mit goldenen Kleinoden schmücken und dein Angesicht schminken würdest, so schmückst du dich doch vergeblich; die Buhlen werden dich verachten, sie werden dir nach dem Leben trachten.
Español · RVR1909 Y tú, destruida, ¿qué harás? Bien que te vistas de grana, aunque te adornes con atavíos de oro, aunque pintes con antimonio tus ojos, en vano te engalanas; menospreciáronte los amadores, buscarán tu alma.
Español · NTBT Y tú, devastada, ¿qué harás? Aunque te vistas de escarlata, te adornes con joyas de oro y te agrandes los ojos con pintura, en vano te embelleces. Tus amantes te desprecian; buscan quitarte la vida.
Français · LSG Et toi, dévastée, que vas-tu faire? Tu te revêtiras de cramoisi, tu te pareras d'ornements d'or, Tu mettras du fard à tes yeux; Mais c'est en vain que tu t'embelliras; Tes amants te méprisent, Ils en veulent à ta vie.
Italiano · DIO1885 E tu, o distrutta, che farai? benchè tu ti vesti di scarlatto, e ti adorni di fregi d’oro, e ti stiri gli occhi col liscio, in vano ti abbellisci; gli amanti ti hanno a schifo, cercano l’anima tua.
Português · ARC Agora, pois, que farás, ó assolada? Ainda que te vistas de carmesim, ainda que te adornes com enfeites de ouro, ainda que te pintes em volta dos teus olhos, debalde te farias bela; os amantes te desprezam, e procuram tirar-te a vida.
中文 · RCUV 你這被毀滅的啊， 你要做甚麼呢？ 你穿上朱紅衣服， 佩戴黃金飾物， 用眼影修飾眼睛， 徒然美化你自己。 戀慕你的卻藐視你， 尋索你的性命。
