Jeremiah 3:7-8

7I thought that one day she would come back to me. But she did not return. Israel's sister, Judah, saw what Israel did.

8Israel was not faithful to me and she served other gods. So I sent her away, like a husband may send his wife away if she is not faithful to him. Judah saw what happened to Israel, but she was not afraid. Like a prostitute, she also went to find other gods that she could serve.
