Jeremiah 3:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 And the Lord said unto me, The rebellious Israel hath [a]justified herself more than the rebellious Judah.
12 Go and cry these words toward [b]the North, and say, Thou disobedient Israel, return, saith the Lord, and I will not let my wrath fall upon you: for I am merciful, saith the Lord, and I will not always keep mine anger.
13 But know thine iniquity: for thou hast rebelled against the Lord thy God, and hast [c]scattered thy ways to the strange gods under every green tree, but ye would not obey my voice, saith the Lord.
