New King James Version
12 Go and proclaim these words toward (A)the north, and say:
‘Return, backsliding Israel,’ says the Lord;
‘I will not cause My anger to fall on you.
For I am (B)merciful,’ says the Lord;
‘I will not remain angry forever.
13 (C)Only acknowledge your iniquity,
That you have transgressed against the Lord your God,
And have (D)scattered your [a]charms
To (E)alien deities (F)under every green tree,
And you have not obeyed My voice,’ says the Lord.
14 “Return, O backsliding children,” says the Lord; (G)“for I am married to you. I will take you, (H)one from a city and two from a family, and I will bring you to (I)Zion.
