NET Bible
"Yet even after she had done all that, I thought that she might come back to me. But she did not. Her sister, unfaithful Judah, saw what she did."
— Jeremiah 3:7, NET Bible
“And I said after she had done all these things, Turn thou unto me. But she returned not. And her treacherous sister Judah saw it.”
“And I said after she had done all these things, She will return unto me; but she returned not: and her treacherous sister Judah saw it. ”
“I said after she had done all these things, 'She will return to me;' but she didn't return; and her treacherous sister Judah saw it.”
“And when she had done all these things, I said: Return to me, and she did not return. And her treacherous sister Juda saw,”
“And I said, After she has done all these things she will come back to me; but she did not. And her false sister Judah saw it.”
“And I said after she had done all these things, Turn thou unto me. But she returned not. And her treacherous sister Judah saw it.”
Even now you say to me,‘You are my father! You have been my faithful companion ever since I was young.
You will not always be angry with me, will you? You will not be mad at me forever, will you?’ That is what you say, but you continually do all the evil that you can.”
When Josiah was king of Judah, the LORD said to me,“Jeremiah, you have no doubt seen what wayward Israel has done. You have seen how she went up to every high hill and under every green tree to give herself like a prostitute to other gods.
Yet even after she had done all that, I thought that she might come back to me. But she did not. Her sister, unfaithful Judah, saw what she did.
She also saw that, because of wayward Israel’s adulterous worship of other gods, I sent her away and gave her divorce papers. But still her unfaithful sister Judah was not afraid, and she too went and gave herself like a prostitute to other gods.
Because she took her prostitution so lightly, she defiled the land through her adulterous worship of gods made of wood and stone.
In spite of all this, Israel’s sister, unfaithful Judah, has not turned back to me with any sincerity; she has only pretended to do so,” says the LORD.
