1  ^g“If¹ a man divorces his wife

and she goes from him

and becomes another man’s wife,

will he return to her?

^hWould not that land be greatly polluted?

ⁱYou have played the whore with many lovers;

and would you return to me?

declares the Lord.

21  How the faithful city

^rhas become a whore,¹

^sshe who was full of justice!

Righteousness lodged in her,

but now murderers.
