Hope for unfaithful Yisrael

Yir 3:11–18

3:11 Hope for unfaithful Yisrael

Northern kingdom

11 Then Yahweh told me: Unfaithful Yisrael (Israel) has actually been more upright than treacherous Yehudah (Judah)! 12 Go up north and tell them:

Unfaithful Yisrael, Yahweh declares:

Return to me—

I won’t continue to be angry at you, because I’m faithful.

That’s Yahweh’s declaration.

13 However you must recognise your disobedience

because you’ve rebelled against your god, Yahweh,

and you’ve extended your connections to foreign gods under every leafy tree,

and you haven’t listened to my voice.

That’s Yahweh’s declaration.

14 Return you unfaithful children, Yahweh declares,

because I’m your husband.

Then I’ll take you all—one from a city and a couple from a clan—and I’ll bring you to Tsiyon (Zion),

15 and I’ll give you shepherds who’ll be faithful to me,

and they will guide you with knowledge and insight.

16 Then when you’re fruitful and multiply in the land, Yahweh says,

they’ll no longer talk about having the chest containing Yahweh’s agreement.

They won’t call it to mind or remember it,

≈ and they won’t miss it or want a new one made again.

17 At that time, they’ll call Yerushalem (Jerusalem) Yahweh’s throne,

and they’ll be gathered there from all the nations to honour Yahweh’s name,

and they won’t want to behave again according to the evil in their own stubborn minds.

18 In those days, the people of Yehudah (Judah) will join the people of Yisrael (Israel),

coming from the northern lands to the land that I gave your ancestors as an inheritance.
