Surely a wife acting faithlessly by her friend, so ye acted faithlessly against me, O house of Israel, says Jehovah.

Correct me, O Jehovah, but in judgment, not in thy wrath, lest thou shalt make me small.

Wo to me, my mother, for thou broughtest me forth a man of strife and a man of contention to all the earth. I lent not on interest and they lent not to me on interest: they are altogether cursing me.

Heal me, O Jehovah, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou my praise.

Attend to me, O Jehovah, and hear for the voice of mine adversary.

Thou didst persuade me, O Jehovah, and I shall be persuaded: thou didst hold me fast, and thou wilt prevail: I was for a derision all the day, all mocking to me.

And thou saidst to me, O Lord Jehovah, Buy to thee the field for silver, and affirm witnesses; and the city was given into the hand of the Chaldeans.
