Jeremiah 3:3-5

Modern English Version

³ Therefore the showers have been withheld,
    and there has been no latter rain.
And you had a harlot’s forehead;
    you refused to be ashamed.
⁴ Shall you not from this time cry to Me,
    “My Father, You are the guide of my youth?
⁵ Shall He reserve His anger forever?
    Shall He keep it to the end?”
Indeed, you have spoken
    and done evil things as you could.
