The Book of the Prophet Jeremiah 4

 The Book of the Prophet Jeremiah 4

1 If you return, O Israel, declares the Lord, you will return to me; and if you remove your abominations from before me, you will no longer wander about.

2 And you will swear: “As the Lord lives, in truth, in justice, and in righteousness!” And in him the nations will bless themselves, and in him they will glory.

3 For thus says the Lord to the men of Judah and to Jerusalem: “Break up your fallow ground, and do not sow among thorns.

4 Circumcise yourselves to the Lord, and remove the foreskins of your hearts, O men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem, lest my indignation go forth like fire and burn with no one to quench it, because of the wickedness of your deeds.”
