JPS_ASV_Byz(i) 9 and it came to pass through the lightness of her harlotry, that the land was polluted, and she committed adultery with stones and with stocks; 10 and yet for all this her treacherous sister Judah hath not returned unto Me with her whole heart, but feignedly, saith the LORD - 11 even the LORD said unto me - backsliding Israel hath proved herself more righteous than treacherous Judah.
