Jeremiah 3:19-21
Holman Christian Standard Bible
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)
