Jeremiah 3:1-3

New Life Version

Israel Is Not Faithful

3 God says, “If a husband divorces his wife and she leaves him and marries another man, should he return to her again? Would not the land be made unclean? But you are like a sinful woman with many lovers, yet would you return to Me?” says the Lord. ² “Lift up your eyes to the open hill-tops and see. Is there any place you have not lain with your lovers? You have sat by the roads waiting for them like an Arab in the desert. And you have made the land unclean with your sinful ways and your wrong-doing. ³ So the rains have been held back. There has been no spring rain. You look like a woman who sells the use of her body, and would not be ashamed.
