Jeremias 50:20
Listen to the same prophet: "At that time," the Lord says, "the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for and there shall be none, and the sin of Judah and there shall be none found." — Against the Pelagians 2.29
Jeremias 50:23
If you take precautions to save your daughter from the bite of a viper, why are you not equally careful to shield her from "the hammer of the whole earth"? Or to prevent her from drinking of the golden cup of Babylon? Or keep her from going out with Dinah to see the daughters of a strange land? Or save her from the tripping dance and from the trailing robe? No one administers poison until he has rubbed the rim of the cup with honey; so the better to deceive us, vice puts on the mien and the semblance of virtue. — LETTER 107
