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
Lexham English Bible
22 Return, O apostate[a] children,
I will heal your backsliding.
‘Look, we come to you,
for you are Yahweh our God.
23 Surely, an illusion comes from the hills,
the turmoil on the mountains.
Surely, in Yahweh our God
is the salvation of Israel.
24 But the shameful thing has devoured
the labor of our ancestors[b] from our youth,
their flocks, and their cattle,
their sons and their daughters.
25 Let us lie down in our shame,
and let our disgrace cover us.
For against Yahweh our God we have sinned,
we and our ancestors,[c]
from our youth and until this day.
and we have not obeyed the voice of Yahweh our God.’
