Jeremiah 31:18-20
English Standard Version Anglicised
18 I have heard (A)Ephraim grieving,
‘You have disciplined me, and I was disciplined,
like an untrained calf;
(B)bring me back that I may be restored,
for you are the Lord my God.
19 For after (C)I had turned away, I relented,
and after I was instructed, (D)I struck my thigh;
(E)I was ashamed, and I was confounded,
because I bore the disgrace of my youth.’
20 (F)Is Ephraim my dear son?
(G)Is he my darling child?
For as often as I speak against him,
I do remember him still.
(H)Therefore my heart[a] yearns for him;
I will surely have mercy on him,
declares the Lord.
