Jeremiah 3:22-25
Legacy Standard Bible
22 [a]“Return, O faithless sons;
(A)I will heal your faithlessness.”
“Behold, we come to You,
For You are Yahweh our God.
23 Surely, (B)the hills are a lie,
A tumult on the mountains.
Surely in (C)Yahweh our God
Is the salvation of Israel.
24 “But (D)the shameful thing has devoured the labor of our fathers since our youth, their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters. 25 Let us lie down in our (E)shame, and let our dishonor cover us; for we have sinned against Yahweh our God, we and our fathers, (F)from our youth even to this day. And we have not listened to the voice of Yahweh our God.”

Jeremiah 3:22-25
Evangelical Heritage Version
22 Return, unfaithful people.
I will cure you of your unfaithfulness.
The People
Yes, we will come to you,
for you are the Lord our God!
23 Yes, there has been deception from the hills,
and commotion in the mountains,
but there is salvation for Israel in the Lord our God.
24 Since our younger days,
shameful gods have consumed the results of our fathers’ hard work,
their sheep and cattle,
and their sons and daughters.
25 We will lie down in that shame.
Our disgrace covers us.
We have sinned against the Lord our God,
both we and our fathers.
From our younger days until today,
we have not obeyed the Lord our God.
