Jeremiah 3:19 in Context — Jeremiah 3

17 Naquele tempo chamarão a Jerusalém: trono do SENHOR, e todas as nações se ajuntarão a ela no nome do SENHOR em Jerusalém; e nunca mais seguirão a teimosia de seu coração maligno.

18 Naqueles tempos os da casa de Judá andarão com a casa de Israel, e virão juntamente da terra do norte à terra que eu fiz herdar a vossos pais.

19 Mas eu disse: Como te porei por filhos, e te darei a terra desejável, a rica propriedade dos exércitos das nações? E disse: tu me chamarás: Meu pai, e não te desviarás de detrás de mim.

20 Porém, tal como a esposa trai o seu companheiro, assim traístes contra mim, ó casa de Israel, diz o SENHOR.

21 Uma voz se ouve sobre os lugares altos: é o pranto das súplicas dos filhos de Israel; porque perverteram seu caminho, [e] se esqueceram do SENHOR seu Deus.
