Jeremiah 3:19-21

True Repentance
19 I thought, “How I long to make you my sons
and give you a desirable land,
the most beautiful inheritance(A) of all the nations.”
I thought, “You will call me ‘My Father’
and never turn away from me.”
20 However, as a woman may betray her lover,[a]
so you have betrayed(B) me, house of Israel.
This is the Lord’s declaration.
21 A sound is heard on the barren heights:
the children of Israel weeping and begging for mercy,
for they have perverted their way;
they have forgotten the Lord their God.(C)
