Jeremiah 3:11-15

11And Jehovah saidH559 unto me, Backsliding IsraelH3478 hath shewn herself more just than treacherousH898 JudahH3063.

12GoH1980 and proclaimH7121 these wordsH1697 toward the northH6828, and sayH559, ReturnH7725, thou backsliding IsraelH3478, saith Jehovah: I will not make my faceH6440 dark upon you; for I am merciful, saith Jehovah; I will not keepH5201 [anger] for everH5769.

13OnlyH389 acknowledge thine iniquityH5771, that thou hast transgressedH6586 against Jehovah thy 1GodH430, and hast turned thy waysH1870 hither and thither to the strangersH2114 under every green treeH6086; and ye have not hearkened to my voiceH6963, saith Jehovah.

14ReturnH7725, backsliding children, saith Jehovah; for I am a husbandH1166 unto you, and I will takeH3947 you, oneH259 of a cityH5892, and twoH8147 of a familyH4940, and I will bringH935 you to ZionH6726.

15And I will giveH5414 you shepherdsH7462 according to my heartH3820, and they shall feedH7462 you with knowledgeH1844 and understanding.
