‘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.’
So ahave you dealt treacherously with Me,
O house of Israel,” says the Lord.
Weeping and supplications of the children of Israel.
For they have perverted their way;
They have forgotten the Lord their God.
And I will aheal your backslidings.”
“Indeed we do come to You,
For You are the Lord our God.
And from the multitude of mountains;
bTruly, in the Lord our God
Is the salvation of Israel.
| << Jeremiah 3:19 | Jeremiah 3:21 >> |
