Jeremiah 3:19-20

Easy-to-Read Version

“I want to treat you like my own children.
    I want to give you a pleasant land,
    a land more beautiful than any other nation.
I thought you would call me ‘Father.’
    I thought you would always follow me.
But you have been unfaithful to me, family of Israel!
    You have been like an unfaithful wife who leaves her husband.
