Jeremiah 3:5-9 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

5. You won't always be angry; you won't be cross with me for ever.’ Israel, that is what you said, but you did all the evil you could.”

6. When Josiah was king, the Lord said to me, “Have you seen what Israel, that unfaithful woman, has done? She has turned away from me, and on every high hill and under every green tree she has acted like a prostitute.

7. I thought that after she had done all this, she would surely return to me. But she did not return, and her unfaithful sister Judah saw it all.

8. Judah also saw that I divorced Israel and sent her away because she had turned from me and had become a prostitute. But Judah, Israel's unfaithful sister, was not afraid. She too became a prostitute

9. and was not at all ashamed. She defiled the land, and she committed adultery by worshipping stones and trees.
