Jeremiah 3:3–5

3 This is why the showers haven’t comed—

why there has been no spring rain.

You have the brazen looke of a prostituteD

and refuse to be ashamed.f

4 Haven’t you recently called to me, “My Father!g

You were my friend in my youth.h

5 Will he bear a grudge forever?i

Will he be endlessly infuriated?”

This is what you have said,

but you have done the evil things

you are capable of.
