1.1 KiB
Yahweh continues speaking in the previous chapter, Jeremiah 2
Is she not completely unclean?
AT: "She is completely unclean." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)
That woman is this the people of this land!
"This land is like that woman!" That is, Yahweh taking the people of Judah back is like a man taking back the wife he earlier divorced. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification)
You have acted like a prostitute
"You have given your love and trust to idols the way a prostitute gives her body to men not her husband" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-simile)
do you want to return to me?
AT: "I will not accept you when you try to come back to me." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)
This is Yahweh’s declaration
See how you translated this idea in Jeremiah 1:7.
Lift up your eyes
"Look up" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom)
Where have you not been ravished?
"You are like a woman who goes everywhere and lets men seize her and sleep with her!" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)
