a song with words taken directly from Jeremiah 4

Though you put on crimson,
though you adorn yourself with ornaments of gold,
though you enlarge your eyes with paint,
you adorn yourself in vain.
Your lovers despise you, they seek your life.
Like keepers of a field they are against her all around,
because she has rebelled against Me
For My people are foolish, they have not known Me.
They are stupid children, and they have no understanding.
They are wise to do evil,
but to do good they have no knowledge.
This is your evil, because it is bitter,
because it has reached into your heart.
wash your heart from evil, and be delivered.
Till when would your wicked thoughts remain within you?
“Woe to me, for my being faints because of murderers!”
“If you do return, O Yisharal,” says Yahuah,
“return to Me.
And if you remove your abomination from My presence,
and cease straying, and shall swear,
‘As Yahuah lives,’ in truth, in lawfulness, and in obedience,
then nations shall bless themselves in Yahuah,
and they shall boast in Yahuah!”
