Jeremiah 3:11-13

Easy-to-Read Version

¹¹The Lord said to me, “Israel was not faithful to me, but she had a better excuse than unfaithful Judah. ¹²Jeremiah, look toward the north and speak this message:

“‘Come back, you faithless people of Israel.’
    This message is from the Lord.
‘I will stop frowning at you.
    I am full of mercy.’
    The Lord says, ‘I will not be angry with you forever.
¹³But you must recognize your sin.
    You turned against the Lord your God.
    That is your sin.
You worshiped the idols of other nations.
    You worshiped them under every green tree.
You did not obey me.’”
    This message is from the Lord.
