Jeremiah 3:13

Context

3:13 However, you must confess that you have done wrong, 1 

and that you have rebelled against the Lord your God.

You must confess 2  that you have given yourself to 3  foreign gods under every green tree,

and have not obeyed my commands,’ says the Lord.

Jeremiah 3:25

Context

3:25 Let us acknowledge 4  our shame.

Let us bear the disgrace that we deserve. 5 

For we have sinned against the Lord our God,

both we and our ancestors.

From earliest times to this very day

we have not obeyed the Lord our God.’

[3:13]  1 tn Heb “Only acknowledge your iniquity.”

[3:13]  2 tn The words “You must confess” are repeated to convey the connection. The Hebrew text has an introductory “that” in front of the second line and a coordinative “and” in front of the next two lines.

[3:13]  3 tc MT reads דְּרָכַיִךְ (dÿrakhayikh, “your ways”), but the BHS editors suggest דּוֹדַיִךְ (dodayikh, “your breasts”) as an example of orthographic confusion. While the proposal makes sense, it remains a conjectural emendation since it is not supported by any actual manuscripts or ancient versions.

[3:25]  4 tn Heb “Let us lie down in….”

[3:25]  5 tn Heb “Let us be covered with disgrace.”
