Jeremiah 31:19-21

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁹ ‘Surely, after I was converted, I repented. And after I was instructed, I struck my thigh. I was ashamed — yea, even humiliated — because I bore the reproach of my youth.’

²⁰ “Is Ephraim My dear son or pleasant child? Yet, though I spoke against him, I still remembered him. Therefore, My Core is troubled for him. I will surely have compassion upon him,” says the LORD.

²¹ “Set up signs for yourselves. Make yourselves heaps. Set your heart toward the path and way that you have walked. Turn back, O virgin of Israel! Turn back to these, your cities!
