TSK · Jeremiah 3:4

For you are my hope, Lord Yahweh; my confidence from my youth.

How can a young man keep his way pure? By living according to your word.

who forsakes the friend of her youth, and forgets the covenant of her God:

who tell wood, 'You are my father;' and a stone, 'You have brought me out:' for they have turned their back to me, and not their face; but in the time of their trouble they will say, 'Arise, and save us.'

They shall come with weeping; and with petitions will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way in which they shall not stumble; for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn.

How long will you go here and there, you backsliding daughter? for Yahweh has created a new thing in the earth: a woman shall encompass a man.

Israel, return to Yahweh your God; for you have fallen because of your sin.
