Jeremiah 3:18-23

18In those days the house of Judah shall join the house of Israel, and together they shall come from the land of the north to the land that I gave your fathers for a heritage.

19"'I said, How I would set you among my sons, and give you a pleasant land, a heritage most beautiful of all nations. And I thought you would call me, My Father, and would not turn from following me.

20Surely, as a treacherous wife leaves her husband, so have you been treacherous to me, O house of Israel, declares the Lord.'"

21A voice on the bare heights is heard, the weeping and pleading of Israel's sons because they have perverted their way; they have forgotten the Lord their God.

22"Return, O faithless sons; I will heal your faithlessness." "Behold, we come to you, for you are the Lord our God.

23Truly the hills are a delusion, the orgies on the mountains. Truly in the Lord our God is the salvation of Israel.
