Jeremiah 3:11-13
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
Restoration of Israel. 11 Then the Lord said to me: Rebel Israel is more just than traitor Judah.(A) 12 Go, proclaim these words toward the north, and say:
Return, rebel Israel—oracle of the Lord—
I will not remain angry with you;
For I am merciful, oracle of the Lord,
I will not keep my anger forever.(B)
13 Only admit your guilt:
how you have rebelled against the Lord, your God,
How you ran here and there to strangers
under every green tree
and would not listen to my voice—oracle of the Lord.(C)
