Jeremiah 3:20

20 Instead, as a faithless wife leaves her husband, so you have been faithless to me, O house of Israel, says the Lord.

Jeremiah 3:20 In-Context

18 In those days the house of Judah shall join the house of Israel, and together they shall come from the land of the north to the land that I gave your ancestors for a heritage.
19 I thought how I would set you among my children, and give you a pleasant land, the most beautiful heritage of all the nations. And I thought you would call me, My Father, and would not turn from following me.
20 Instead, as a faithless wife leaves her husband, so you have been faithless to me, O house of Israel, says the Lord.
21 A voice on the bare heights is heard, the plaintive weeping of Israel's children, because they have perverted their way, they have forgotten the Lord their God:
22 Return, O faithless children, I will heal your faithlessness. "Here we come to you; for you are the Lord our God.
