Open this scene in the reader →1If you return, Israel, declares Yahweh, return to me; if you remove your detestable idols from my sight and do not stray,
2and if you swear, ‘As Yahweh lives,’ in truth, in justice, and in righteousness, then the nations will invoke blessings by him, and in him they will boast.
3For this is what Yahweh says to the men of Judah and to Jerusalem: Break up unplowed ground for yourselves; do not sow among thorns.
4Circumcise yourselves for Yahweh; remove the foreskins of your hearts, men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem, or my wrath will break out like fire and burn with no one to quench it because of your evil deeds.
