3 For when I kept silent, my ^abones wasted away
through my ^bgroaning all day long.
4 For day and night your ^chand was heavy upon me;
my strength was dried up ^{▼▼Hebrew my vitality was changed} as by the heat of summer. Selah
5 I ^eacknowledged my sin to you,
and I did not cover my iniquity;
I said, “I ^fwill confess my transgressions to the Lord,”
and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah

Jeremiah 31:18-20

18 I have heard ^gEphraim grieving,
‘You have disciplined me, and I was disciplined,
like an untrained calf;
^hbring me back that I may be restored,
for you are the Lord my God.
19 For after ⁱI had turned away, I relented,
and after I was instructed, ^jI struck my thigh;
^kI was ashamed, and I was confounded,
because I bore the disgrace of my youth.’
20 ^lIs Ephraim my dear son?
^mIs he my darling child?
For as often as I speak against him,
I do remember him still.
ⁿTherefore my heart ^{▼▼Hebrew bowels} yearns for him;
I will surely have mercy on him,

declares the Lord.

Luke 15:18-20

18 I will arise and go to my father, and I will say to him, “Father, ^pI have sinned against ^qheaven and before you. 19 ^rI am no longer worthy to be called your son. Treat me as one of your hired servants.”’ 20 And he arose and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion, and ^sran and ^tembraced him and ^ukissed him.
