Unfaithful Israel

If a man divorces his wife,
    and she goes from him and becomes another man’s,
shall he return to her again?
    Shall not that land be greatly polluted?
But you have played the harlot with many lovers;
    yet return again to Me,
    says the Lord.
Lift up your eyes to the high places,
    and see! Where have you not been ravished?
In the roads you have sat for them
    as the Arabian in the wilderness.
And you have polluted the land
    with your harlotry and with your wickedness.
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.
