Jeremiah 2:23
Douay-Rheims
How canst thou say: I am not polluted, and I have not walked after Baalim? see thy ways in the valley, know what thou hast done: as a swift runner pursuing his course.
George Leo Haydock
Valley of Hinnom, under the very walls of Jerusalem. (Calmet) — Runner. Hebrew, “dromedary,” which takes its name from its swiftness. (Haydock) — The female camel continues all day with the male, and cannot be approached. (Aristotle; Pliny, [Natural History?] x. 63.) — Juda is represented as no less libidinous. (Calmet)
