મને જ્યારે સમજાયુ કે મેં શું કર્યું છે, ત્યારે મેં મારી જાંઘ પર થબડાકો મારી; હું લજ્જિત અને અપમાનિત થયો છું, કેમ કે, જ્યારે હું જુવાન હતો ત્યારે મેં બદનામીવાળા કામો કર્યાં હતાં.’
हिन्दीयिर्मयाह ३१:१९
भटक जाने के बाद मैं पछताया; और सिखाए जाने के बाद मैंने छाती पीटी; पुराने पापों को स्मरण कर मैं लज्जित हुआ और मेरा मुँह काला हो गया।’
