Compare all
15 And I will give you ashepherds according to My heart, who will bfeed you with knowledge and understanding.  
16 “Then it shall come to pass, when you are multiplied and aincreased in the land in those days,” says the Lord, “that they will say no more, ‘The ark of the covenant of the Lord.’ bIt shall not come to mind, nor shall they remember it, nor shall they visit it, nor shall it be made anymore.  
17 “At that time Jerusalem shall be called The Throne of the Lord, and all the nations shall be gathered to it, ato the name of the Lord, to Jerusalem. No more shall they bfollow the dictates of their evil hearts.  
18 “In those days athe house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of bthe north to cthe land that I have given as an inheritance to your fathers.  
19 “But I said:
‘How can I put you among the children
And give you aa pleasant land,
A beautiful heritage of the hosts of nations?’ “And I said:
‘You shall call Me, b“My Father,”
And not turn away from Me.’ 
20 Surely, as a wife treacherously departs from her1 husband,
So ahave you dealt treacherously with Me,
O house of Israel,” says the Lord. 
21 A voice was heard on athe desolate heights,
Weeping and supplications of the children of Israel.
For they have perverted their way;
They have forgotten the Lord their God. 
22 “Return, you backsliding children,
And I will aheal your backslidings.”
“Indeed we do come to You,
For You are the Lord our God. 
23 aTruly, in vain is salvation hoped for from the hills,
And from the multitude of mountains;
bTruly, in the Lord our God
Is the salvation of Israel. 
24 aFor shame has devoured
The labor of our fathers from our youth—
Their flocks and their herds,
Their sons and their daughters. 
25 We lie down in our shame,
And our1 reproach covers us.
aFor we have sinned against the Lord our God,
We and our fathers,
From our youth even to this day,
And bhave not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God.”
