Jeremiah 2:24


Or [you have the untamed and reckless nature of] a wild donkey accustomed to the wilderness,
That sniffs the wind in her passion [for the scent of a mate].
In her mating season who can restrain her?
No males seeking her need to weary themselves;
In her month they will find her [looking for them].

They pant for air like jackals,
Their eyesight fails
Because there is no grass.

[Only] when the colt of a wild donkey is born as a man.

And who has loosed the bonds of the wild donkey [to survive in the wild],

Jeremiah 2:27


Who say to a tree, ‘You are my father,’
And to a stone, ‘You gave me birth.’
For they have turned their backs to Me,
And not their faces;
But in the time of their trouble they will say,
‘Arise [O Lord] and save us.’

Hosea 5:15


I will go away and return to My place [on high]
Until they acknowledge their offense and bear their guilt and seek My face;
In their distress they will earnestly seek Me, saying,
