Jeremiah 3:6 in Context — Jeremiah 3

4 A lo menos desde ahora, ¿no clamarás á mí, Padre mío, guiador de mi juventud?

5 ¿Guardará [su enojo] para siempre? ¿eternalmente lo guardará? He aquí que has hablado y hecho cuantas maldades pudiste.

6 Y díjome Jehová en días del rey Josías: ¿Has visto lo que ha hecho la rebelde Israel? Vase ella sobre todo monte alto y debajo de todo árbol umbroso, y allí fornica.

7 Y dije después que hizo todo esto: Vuélvete á mí; mas no se volvió. Y vió la rebelde su hermana Judá,

8 Que yo lo había visto; que por todas estas causas en las cuales fornicó la rebelde Israel, yo la había despedido, y dádole la carta de su repudio; y no tuvo temor la rebelde Judá su hermana, sino que también fué ella y fornicó.
