Jeremiah 3:19

[LucyBop]

In Jeremiah Chapter 3, The Lord calls out to Israel, to repent and return to Him.....

 

14"Return, O backsliding children," says the LORD; "for I am married to you. I will take you, one from a city and two from a family,

and I will bring you to Zion. 15And I will give you shepherds according to My heart, who will feed you with knowledge and

understanding.

16"Then it shall come to pass, when you are multiplied and increased in the land in those days," says the LORD,

"that they will say no more, "The ark of the covenant of the LORD.' It shall not come to mind, nor shall they remember it,

nor shall they visit it, nor shall it be made anymore.

17"At that time Jerusalem shall be called The Throne of the LORD, and all the nations shall be gathered to it, to the

name of the LORD, to Jerusalem. No more shall they follow the dictates of their evil hearts.

18"In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the l

and of the north to the land that I have given as an inheritance to your fathers.

19"But I said:

 

 

"How can I put you among the children

And give you a pleasant land,

A beautiful heritage of the hosts of nations?'

 

 

"And I said:

 

 

"You shall call Me, "My Father,"

And not turn away from Me.'

20Surely, as a wife treacherously departs from her husband,

So have you dealt treacherously with Me,

O house of Israel," says the LORD.
