Jeremiah 3:2-4
Expanded Bible
2 “·Look up [L Lift up your eyes and look] to the bare hilltops, Judah.
Is there any place where ·you have not been a prostitute [L you have not been lain with; C the hill country contained many pagan altars]?
You have sat by the road waiting for lovers,
like an Arab in the ·desert [wilderness].
You made the land ·unclean [defiled; polluted; C in a ritual sense],
because you did evil and were like a prostitute.
3 So the rain has ·not come [L been withheld],
and there have not been any spring rains [1 Kin. 17:1].
But ·your face still looks like the face [L you have the forehead] of a prostitute [C unembarrassed].
You refuse even to be ashamed of what you did.
4 ·Now you are [L Are you not now…?] calling to me,
‘My father, you have been my friend since I was young.
