Jeremiah 3:11-22
11And the LordH3068 saidH559 to me, “1FaithlessH4878 IsraelH3478 has provedH6663 herselfH5315 toH6663 beH6663 moreH4480 righteousH6663 thanH4480 treacherousH898 JudahH3063. 12GoH1980 and proclaimH7121 theseH428 wordsH1697 toward the northH6828 and sayH559, ‘2ReturnH7725, faithlessH4878 IsraelH3478,’ declaresH5002 the LordH3068; ‘3I will not 4lookH5307 at you inH5307 angerH5307. For I am 5graciousH2623,’ declaresH5002 the LordH3068; ‘I will not beH5201 angryH5201 foreverH5769.13OnlyH389 67acknowledgeH3045 your wrongdoingH5771, That you have revoltedH6586 against the LordH3068 your GodH430, And have 8scatteredH6340 your 9favorsH1870 to the strangersH2114 10underH8478 everyH3605 leafyH7488 treeH6086, And you have not obeyedH8085 My voiceH6963,’ declaresH5002 the LordH3068.14‘ReturnH7725, you faithlessH7726 sonsH1121,’ declaresH5002 the LordH3068; ‘For I amH1166 aH1166 11masterH1166 to you, And I will takeH3947 you, oneH259 from a cityH5892 and twoH8147 from a familyH4940, And 12bringH935 you to ZionH6726.’
15“Then I will giveH5414 you 13shepherdsH7462 14after My own heartH3820, who will 15feedH7462 you knowledgeH1844 and understandingH7919. 16And it shall be in thoseH1992 daysH3117 whenH3588 you becomeH7235 numerousH7235 and areH6509 fruitfulH6509 in the landH776,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “they will 16noH3808 longerH5750 sayH559, ‘The arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LordH3068.’ And it will not comeH5927 to mindH3820, norH3808 will they rememberH2142 it, norH3808 missH6485 it, norH3808 will it be madeH6213 againH5750. 17At that timeH6256 they will callH7121 JerusalemH3389 ‘The 17ThroneH3678 of the LordH3068,’ and 18allH3605 the nationsH1471 will assembleH6960 at it, at JerusalemH3389, for the 19nameH8034 of the LordH3068; and they will noH3808 longerH5750 20followH1980H310 the stubbornnessH8307 of their evilH7451 heartH3820. 1821In thoseH1992 daysH3117 the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 will walkH1980 with the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and they will comeH935 togetherH3164 22from the landH776 of the northH6828 to the 23landH776 that I gaveH5157 your fathersH1 asH5157 anH5157 inheritanceH5157.
19“Then I saidH559, ‘HowH349 I would setH7896 you among 24My sonsH1121 And giveH5414 you a pleasantH2532 landH776, The mostH6643 25beautifulH6643 inheritanceH5159 of the nationsH1471!’ And I saidH559, ‘You shall callH7121 Me, 26My FatherH1, And not turnH7725 awayH7725 from followingH310 Me.’20HoweverH403, as a womanH802 treacherouslyH898 leavesH898H4480 her loverH7453, SoH3651 you have 27dealtH898 treacherouslyH898 with Me, HouseH1004 of IsraelH3478,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.
21A voiceH6963 is heardH8085 on the 28bareH8205 heightsH8205, The weepingH1065, the pleadingH8469 of the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478. BecauseH3588 they have pervertedH5753 their wayH1870, They have 29forgottenH7911 the LordH3068 their GodH430.22“ReturnH7725, you faithlessH7726 sonsH1121, 30I will healH7495 your faithlessnessH4878.” “BeholdH2009, we comeH857 to You; For You are the LordH3068 our GodH430.
