Jeremiah 3:3-5

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

³ Therefore the showers have been withheld,
    and the spring rain has not come;
yet you have the forehead of a whore,
    you refuse to be ashamed.
⁴ Have you not just now called to me,
    ‘My Father, you are the friend of my youth—
⁵ will he be angry for ever,
    will he be indignant to the end?’
This is how you have spoken,
    but you have done all the evil that you could.
