Jeremiah 31:20 in Context — Jeremiah 31
18 De fato ouvi Efraim se queixar, [dizendo] : Castigaste-me, e fui castigado como um novilho não domado; converte-me e serei convertido; pois tu és o SENHOR meu Deus.
19 Pois depois que me desviei, arrependi-me; depois que entendi, golpeei-me na coxa; envergonhei-me, e me senti humilhado, porque levei a vergonha de minha juventude.
20 Por acaso não é Efraim um filho precioso para mim? Não é ele um filho do meu agrado? Pois mesmo tendo eu falado contra ele, eu me lembro dele constantemente. Por isso minhas entranhas se comovem por ele; certamente terei compaixão dele,diz o SENHOR.
21 Levanta para ti sinais, põe para ti marcos altos; presta atenção à vereda, ao caminho [por onde] vieste; volta-te, ó virgem de Israel, volta-te para estas tuas cidades.
22 Até quando andarás sem rumo, ó filha rebelde? Pois o SENHOR criará uma coisa nova sobre a terra: uma fêmea cercará ao varão.
