This message is from the Lord.
“Israel, if you want to come back,
    then come back to me.
Throw away your idols.
    Don’t wander farther away from me.
If you do these things, you will be able to use my name to make a promise.
    You will be able to say, ‘As the Lord lives.’
    You will be able to use these words in a truthful, honest, and right way.
If you do these things, the nations will be blessed by the Lord.
    They will brag about what the Lord has done.”

This is what the Lord says to the people of Judah and to Jerusalem:

“Your fields have not been plowed.
    Plow those fields!
    Don’t plant seeds among the thorns.
