Jeremiah 3:3-10

3And the showersH7241 have beenH1961 withholden, and there hath beenH1961 no latter rainH4456; but thou hast a harlot's foreheadH4696, thou refusest to beH1961 ashamedH3637.

4Wilt thou not from this time cry unto me, My fatherH1, thou art the guide of my youthH5271?

5Will he keepH8104 [his anger] for everH5769? Will he preserveH8104 it perpetually? Behold, thou hast spokenH1696 and hast done evilH7451 things, and thou art [so] determined.

6And Jehovah saidH559 unto me in the daysH3117 of JosiahH2977 the kingH4428, Hast thou seenH7200 what backsliding IsraelH3478 hath done? She hath goneH1980 up upon every highH1364 mountainH2022 and under every green treeH6086, and there hath committed fornication.

7And I saidH559, After she hath done all these [thingsH428], she will returnH7725 unto me; but she returnedH7725 not. And her sisterH269 JudahH3063, the treacherousH901, sawH7200 [it].

8And I sawH7200 that when for all the causes wherein backsliding IsraelH3478 committedH5003 adulteryH5003 I had putH5414 her awayH7971, and givenH5414 her a bill of divorce, yet the treacherousH898 JudahH3063, her sisterH269, fearedH3372 not, but went and committedH5003 fornication alsoH1571.

9And it came to pass through the lightness of her fornication that she pollutedH2610 the landH776, and committedH5003 adulteryH5003 with stonesH68 and with stocks.

10And even for all this her treacherousH901 sisterH269 JudahH3063 hath not returnedH7725 unto me with her whole heartH3820, but with falsehoodH8267, saith Jehovah.
