Jeremiah 3:9 CPDV

⁷  And when she had done all these things, I said: 'Return to me.' But she did not return. And her deceitful sister Judah saw this:

⁸  that because the apostate Israel had committed adultery, I had dismissed her and had given her a bill of divorce. Yet her deceitful sister Judah was not afraid. But she, too, went and committed fornication herself.

⁹  And by the act of her fornication, she defiled the land. For she committed adultery with that which is stone and wood.

¹⁰  And after all these things, her deceitful sister Judah has not returned to me with her whole heart, but with lies, says the Lord.'

¹¹  And the Lord said to me: 'The apostate Israel has justified her own soul by comparing herself to the deceitful Judah.
