Alza tus ojos a las alturas desoladas y mira:

con tu prostituciòn y tu maldad.

Jeremiah 3:2 - The Message

"Look around at the hills.
   Where have you not had sex?
You’ve camped out like hunters stalking deer.
   You’ve solicited many lover-gods,
Like a streetwalking whore
   chasing after other gods.
And so the rain has stopped.
   No more rain from the skies!
But it doesn’t even faze you. Brazen as whores,
   you carry on as if you’ve done nothing wrong.
Then you have the nerve to call out, ’My father!
   You took care of me when I was a child. Why not now?
Are you going to keep up your anger nonstop?’
   That’s your line. Meanwhile you keep sinning nonstop."
