Jeremiah 3:22-24
Contemporary English Version
Jeremiah 3:22-24
Contemporary English Version
22 I will tell them, “Come back,
and I will cure you
of your unfaithfulness.”
They will answer,
“We will come back, because you
are the Lord our God.
23 On hilltops, we worshiped idols
and made loud noises,
but it was all for nothing—
only you can save us.
24 Since the days of our ancestors
when our nation was young,
that shameful god Baal[a] has taken
our crops and livestock,
our sons and daughters.
Footnotes
