Jeremiah 3:2-4
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
2 Look up to the bare heights,[a] and see!
Where have you not been lain with?
By the waysides you have sat waiting for lovers,
like a nomad in the wilderness.
You have polluted the land
with your whoring and wickedness.
3 Therefore the showers have been withheld,
and the spring rain has not come;
yet you have the forehead of a whore,

4 Have you not just now called to me,
‘My Father, you are the friend of my youth—

Jeremiah 3:2-4
New International Version
2 “Look up to the barren heights(A) and see.
Is there any place where you have not been ravished?
By the roadside(B) you sat waiting for lovers,
sat like a nomad in the desert.
You have defiled the land(C)
with your prostitution(D) and wickedness.
3 Therefore the showers have been withheld,(E)
and no spring rains(F) have fallen.
Yet you have the brazen(G) look of a prostitute;
you refuse to blush with shame.(H)
4 Have you not just called to me:
‘My Father,(I) my friend from my youth,(J)
