And I said after she had done all these things, Turn thou unto me. But she returned not. And her treacherous sister Judah saw it.

The verse 7 is found in chapter 3 of Jeremiah. Judah receives a warning by observing the unfaithfulness of northern Israel, but it is also called to return. The future includes a restoration in which the former kingdoms will be reunited and Jerusalem will be called Yahweh’s throne. The promise transcends the historical division between Israel and Judah and points toward a reunited community under God.

Und ich sprach, da sie solches alles getan hatte: Bekehre dich zu mir. Aber sie bekehrte sich nicht. Und obwohl ihre Schwester Juda, die Verstockte, gesehen hat,
Y dije después que hizo todo esto: Vuélvete a mí; mas no se volvió. Y vio la rebelde su hermana Judá.
Yo dije: “Después de hacer todo esto, volverá a mí”. Pero no volvió, y su hermana, la desleal Judá, lo vio.
Je disais: Après avoir fait toutes ces choses, elle reviendra à moi. Mais elle n'est pas revenue. Et sa soeur, la perfide Juda, en a été témoin.
E pure, dopo ch’ebbe fatte tutte queste cose, io le dissi: Convertiti a me; ma ella non si convertì; e ciò vide la disleale Giuda, sua sorella.
E eu disse: Depois que fizer tudo isto, voltará para mim; mas não voltou; e viu isto a sua aleivosa irmã Judá.
我說:『她行這些事以後會回轉歸向我』,她卻不回轉。她奸詐的妹妹 猶大 也看見了。
