³ So I have held back the showers.
    I have kept the spring rains from falling.
But you still have the bold face of a prostitute.
    You refuse to blush with shame.
⁴ You have just now called out to me.
    You said,
‘My Father, you have been my friend
    ever since I was young.
⁵ Will you always be angry with me?
    Will your anger continue forever?’
This is how you talk.
    But you do all the evil things you can.”
