Jeremiah 3:20-25

20SurelyH403, as a womanH802 treacherouslyH898 departs from her 1loverH7453, SoH3651 you have 2dealtH898 treacherouslyH898 with Me, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.

21A voiceH6963 is heardH8085 on the 3bareH8205 heightsH8205, The weepingH1065 and the supplicationsH8469 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478; BecauseH3588 they have pervertedH5753 their wayH1870, They have 4forgottenH7911 the LordH3068 their GodH430.22“ReturnH7725, O faithlessH7726 sonsH1121, 5I will healH7495 your faithlessnessH4878.” “BeholdH2009, we comeH857 to You; For You are the LordH3068 our GodH430.23SurelyH403, 6the hillsH1389 are a deceptionH8267, A tumultH1995 on the mountainsH2022. SurelyH403 in the 7LordH3068 our GodH430 Is the salvationH8668 of IsraelH3478.

24“But 8the shamefulH1322 thingH1322 has consumedH398 the laborH3018 of our fathersH1 sinceH4480 our youthH5271, their flocksH6629 and their herdsH1241, their sonsH1121 and their daughtersH1323. 25Let us lieH7901 downH7901 in our 9shameH1322, and let our humiliationH3639 coverH3680 us; for we have sinnedH2398 against the LordH3068 our GodH430, we and our fathersH1, 10from our youthH5271 even to thisH2088 dayH3117. And we have not obeyedH8085 the voiceH6963 of the LordH3068 our GodH430.”
