Jeremiah 3:20-23
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 3
20However, as a woman treacherously leaves her lover, So you have dealt treacherously with Me, House of Israel,' declares the Lord. 21A voice is heard on the bare heights, The weeping, the pleading of the sons of Israel. Because they have perverted their way, They have forgotten the Lord their God. 22'Return, you faithless sons, I will heal your faithlessness.' 'Behold, we come to You; For You are the Lord our God.King James Version
Chapter 3
20Surely as a wife treacherously departeth from her husband, so have ye dealt treacherously with me, O house of Israel, saith the LORD. 21A voice was heard upon the high places, weeping and supplications of the children of Israel: for they have perverted their way, and they have forgotten the LORD their God. 22Return, ye backsliding children, and I will heal your backslidings. Behold, we come unto thee; for thou art the LORD our God. 23Truly in vain is salvation hoped for from the hills, and from the multitude of mountains: truly in the LORD our God is the salvation of Israel.Christian Standard Bible
New Living Translation
22'My wayward children,' says the Lord, 'come back to me, and I will heal your wayward hearts.' 'Yes, we’re coming,' the people reply, 'for you are the Lord our God.
23Our worship of idols on the hills and our religious orgies on the mountains are a delusion. Only in the Lord our God will Israel ever find salvation.
