Jeremiah 3:1-3

New American Standard Bible 1995

3 God ^[a]says, “^(A)If a husband divorces his wife
And she goes from him
And belongs to another man,
Will he still return to her?
Will not that land be completely ^[b]polluted?
But you ^(B)are a harlot with many ^[c]lovers;
Yet you ^(C)turn to Me,” declares the Lord.
² “Lift up your eyes to the ^(D)bare heights and see;
Where have you not been violated?
By the roads you have ^(E)sat for them
Like an Arab in the desert,
And you have ^(F)polluted a land
With your harlotry and with your wickedness.
³ “Therefore the ^(G)showers have been withheld,
And there has been no spring rain.
Yet you had a ^(H)harlot’s forehead;
You refused to be ashamed.
