Jeremiah 3:1-5
1God 1saysH559, “2IfH2005 a husbandH376 divorcesH7971 his wifeH802 And she goesH1980 from him And belongsH1961 to anotherH312 manH376, Will he stillH5750 returnH7725 to her? Will not that landH776 be completelyH2610 3pollutedH2610? But you 4are a harlotH2181 with manyH7227 5loversH7453; Yet you 6turnH7725 to Me,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.2“LiftH5375 up your eyesH5869 to the 7bareH8205 heightsH8205 and seeH7200; WhereH375 have you not been violatedH7693? By the roadsH1870 you have 8satH3427 for them Like an ArabH6163 in the desertH4057, And you have 9pollutedH2610 a landH776 With your harlotryH2183 and with your wickednessH7463.3Therefore the 10showersH7241 have been withheldH4513, And there has beenH1961 noH3808 springH4456 rainH4456. Yet you hadH1961 a 11harlot’sH802H2181 foreheadH4696; You refusedH3985 to be ashamedH3637.4Have you not just nowH6258 calledH7121 to Me, ‘12My FatherH1, You are the 1314friendH441 of my 15youthH5271?516Will He be angryH5201 foreverH5769? Will He 17be indignantH8104 to the endH5331?’ BeholdH2009, you have spokenH1696 And have doneH6213 evilH7451 thingsH7451, And you have 18hadH3201 your wayH3201.”
