Jeremiah 3:22-24

Modern English Version

²² Return, O backsliding sons,
    and I will heal your backslidings.

“We come to You;
    for You are the Lord our God.
²³ Truly in vain is salvation hoped for from the hills,
    and from the multitude of mountains.
Truly, in the Lord our God
    is the salvation of Israel.
²⁴ For shame has devoured the labor
    of our fathers from our youth,
their flocks and their herds,
    their sons and their daughters.
