Jeremiah 31:19

Surely after that I was turned, I repented; and after that I was instructed, I smote upon my thigh: I was ashamed, yea, even confounded, because I did bear the reproach of my youth.

KJV

Postquam enim convertisti me, egi pœnitentiam : et postquam ostendisti mihi, percussi femur meum. Confusus sum, et erubui, quoniam sustinui opprobrium adolescentiæ meæ.

Vulgate

ἐφ’ ὁδοῦ στῆθι καὶ ἔπιδε, καθημένη ἐν Ἀροήρ, καὶ ἐρώτησον φεύγοντα καὶ σωζόμενον καὶ εἰπόν Τί ἐγένετο;

LXX

Surely after that I was turned, I repented; and after that I was instructed, I smote upon my thigh: I was ashamed, yea, even confounded, because I did bear the reproach of my youth.
