Jeremiah 31:17-19
Contemporary English Version
Jeremiah 31:17-19
Contemporary English Version
17 So don't lose hope.
I, the Lord, have spoken.
18 The people of Israel[a] moan
and say to me,
“We were like wild bulls,
but you, Lord, broke us,
and we learned to obey.
You are our God—
please let us come home.
19 When we were young,
we strayed and sinned,
but then we realized
what we had done.
We are ashamed and disgraced
and want to return to you.”
