Jeremiah 3:6-8

Evangelical Heritage Version

Unfaithful Israel, Treacherous Judah

⁶ In the days of King Josiah, the Lord asked me:

Have you seen what unfaithful Israel did? She has gone up onto every high hill and under every green tree and acted like a prostitute there. ⁷ I told myself that after she did all this, she would return to me, but she did not return, and her treacherous sister Judah saw it. ⁸ Unfaithful Israel committed adultery, so I sent her away. I gave her a certificate of divorce, yet I saw that in spite of this, her treacherous sister Judah had no fear. She also went and acted like a prostitute.
