Jeremiah 3:1-5

1“If a man divorces his wife and she leaves him to be with another man, will he return to her again? Would not such a land be totally polluted? You are a prostitute with many lovers. Now are you returning to Me?” It is a declaration of Adonai.

2“Lift your eyes to the barren hills and see! Where have you not been violated? By the wayside you sat waiting for them like a nomad in the desert. You have polluted the land with your prostitution and wickedness.

3Therefore showers have been withheld and there has been no spring rain. You have a harlot’s brazen look; you refuse to be ashamed.

4Did you not just now call to Me: ‘Avi! You are a friend of my youth.

5Would He keep a grudge forever? Would He keep it to the end?’ So you said—yet you have done all the evil things you could.”
