Jeremiah 3:1-11

They say
<0559> (8800)_,
If a man
<0376>
put away
<07971> (8762)
his wife
<0802>_,
and she go
<01980> (8804)
from him, and become another
<0312>
man's
<0376>_,
shall he return unto her again
<07725> (8799)_?
shall not that land
<0776>
be greatly
<02610> (8800)
polluted
<02610> (8799)_?
but thou hast played the harlot
<02181> (8804)
with many
<07227>
lovers
<07453>_;
yet return again
<07725> (8800)
to me, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
{They say: Heb. Saying}
Lift up
<05375> (8798)
thine eyes
<05869>
unto the high places
<08205>_,
and see
<07200> (8798)
where
<0375>
thou hast not been lien
<07693> (8795) (8676) <07901> (8795)
with. In the ways
<01870>
hast thou sat
<03427> (8804)
for them, as the Arabian
<06163>
in the wilderness
<04057>_;
and thou hast polluted
<02610> (8686)
the land
<0776>
with thy whoredoms
<02184>
and with thy wickedness
<07451>_.
Therefore the showers
<07241>
have been withholden
<04513> (8735)_,
and there hath been no latter rain
<04456>_;
and thou hadst a whore's
<02181> (8802) <0802>
forehead
<04696>_,
thou refusedst
<03985> (8765)
to be ashamed
<03637> (8736)_.
Wilt thou not from this time cry
<07121> (8804)
unto me, My father
<01>_,
thou [art] the guide
<0441>
of my youth
<05271>_?
Will he reserve
<05201> (8799)
[his anger] for ever
<05769>_?
will he keep
<08104> (8799)
[it] to the end
<05331>_?
Behold, thou hast spoken
<01696> (8765)
and done
<06213> (8799)
evil things
<07451>
as thou couldest
<03201> (8799)_.
The LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
also unto me in the days
<03117>
of Josiah
<02977>
the king
<04428>_,
Hast thou seen
<07200> (8804)
[that] which backsliding
<04878>
Israel
<03478>
hath done
<06213> (8804)_?
she is gone up
<01980> (8802)
upon every high
<01364>
mountain
<02022>
and under
<08478>
every green
<07488>
tree
<06086>_,
and there hath played the harlot
<02181> (8799)_.
And I said
<0559> (8799)
after
<0310>
she had done
<06213> (8800)
all these [things], Turn
<07725> (8799)
thou unto me. But she returned
<07725> (8804)
not. And her treacherous
<0901>
sister
<0269>
Judah
<03063>
saw
<07200> (8799)
[it].
And I saw
<07200> (8799)_,
when for all the causes
<0182>
whereby backsliding
<04878>
Israel
<03478>
committed adultery
<05003> (8765)
I had put her away
<07971> (8765)_,
and given
<05414> (8799)
her a bill
<05612>
of divorce
<03748>_;
yet her treacherous
<0898> (8802)
sister
<0269>
Judah
<03063>
feared
<03372> (8804)
not, but went
<03212> (8799)
and played the harlot
<02181> (8799)
also.
And it came to pass through the lightness
<06963>
of her whoredom
<02184>_,
that she defiled
<02610> (8799)
the land
<0776>_,
and committed adultery
<05003> (8799)
with stones
<068>
and with stocks
<06086>_.
{lightness: or, fame}
And yet for all this her treacherous
<0901>
sister
<0269>
Judah
<03063>
hath not turned
<07725> (8804)
unto me with her whole heart
<03820>_,
but feignedly
<08267>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
{feignedly: Heb. in falsehood}
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto me, The backsliding
<04878>
Israel
<03478>
hath justified
<06663> (8765)
herself
<05315>
more than treacherous
<0898> (8802)
Judah
<03063>_.
