Jeremiah 3:9

Context
3:9 Because she took her prostitution so lightly, she defiled the land 1  through her adulterous worship of gods made of wood and stone. 2 

1 tc The translation reads the form as a causative (Hiphil, תַּהֲנֵף, tahanef) with some of the versions in place of the simple stative (Qal, תֶּחֱנַף, tekhenaf) in the MT.

2 tn Heb “because of the lightness of her prostitution, she defiled the land and committed adultery with stone and wood.”
