9And it came to passe thorow the lightnes of her whoredome, that shee defiled the land, and committed adultery with stones and with stockes. 10And yet for all this her treacherous sister Iudah hath not turned vnto mee with her whole heart, but fainedly, saith the Lord. 11And the Lord said vnto mee, The backesliding Israel hath iustified her selfe more then treacherous Iudah. 12¶ Go and proclaime these words toward the North, and say, Returne thou backesliding Israel, sayeth the Lord, and I will not cause mine anger to fall vpon you: for I am mercifull, saith the Lord, and I will not keepe anger for euer. 13Only acknowledge thine iniquity that thou hast transgressed against the Lord thy God, and hast scattered thy wayes to the strangers vnder euery greene tree, and ye haue not obeyed my voice, saith the Lord.
