8 Then I saw that afor all the causes for which backsliding Israel had committed adultery, I had bput her away and given her a certificate of divorce; cyet her treacherous sister Judah did not fear, but went and played the harlot also.
9 So it came to pass, through her casual harlotry, that she adefiled the land and committed adultery with bstones and trees.
10 And yet for all this her treacherous sister Judah has not turned to Me awith her whole heart, but in pretense,” says the Lord.
11 Then the Lord said to me, a“Backsliding Israel has shown herself more righteous than treacherous Judah.
12 Go and proclaim these words toward athe north, and say:
‘Return, backsliding Israel,’ says the Lord;
‘I will not cause My anger to fall on you.
For I am bmerciful,’ says the Lord;
‘I will not remain angry forever.

‘I will not remain angry forever.
13 aOnly acknowledge your iniquity,
That you have transgressed against the Lord your God,
And have bscattered your charms
To calien deities dunder every green tree,
And you have not obeyed My voice,’ says the Lord.
