in a land not sown.

Jeremiah 3:1 - 25
1
"If a man divorces his wife
and she goes from him
and becomes another man's wife,
will he return to her?
Would not that land be greatly polluted?
You have played the whore with many lovers;
and would you return to me?
declares the Lord.
2
Lift up your eyes to the bare heights, and see!
Where have you not been ravished?
By the waysides you have sat awaiting lovers
like an Arab in the wilderness.
You have polluted the land
with your vile whoredom.

in truth, in justice, and in righteousness,
then nations shall bless themselves in him,
and in him shall they glory."

Jeremiah 5:1 - 31
1
Run to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem,
look and take note!

if you can find a man,
one who does justice
and seeks truth,
that I may pardon her.
2
Though they say, "As the Lord lives,"
yet they swear falsely.

Flee for safety, O people of Benjamin,
from the midst of Jerusalem!

and great destruction.
2
The lovely and delicately bred I will destroy,
the daughter of Zion.

Jeremiah 9:1 - 26
1
Oh that my head were waters,
and my eyes a fountain of tears,
that I might weep day and night
for the slain of the daughter of my people!

a travelers' lodging place,
that I might leave my people
and go away from them!
For they are all adulterers,
a company of treacherous men.
