“But despite all this, her faithless sister Judah has never sincerely returned to me. She has only pretended to be sorry. I, the LORD, have spoken! Then the LORD said to me, Even faithless Israel is less guilty than treacherous Judah! Therefore, go and give this message to Israel. This is what the LORD says: O Israel, my faithless people, come home to me again, for I am merciful. I will not be angry with you forever. ”
- Jeremiah 3:10-12 (NLT)
