Therefore, this is what the Holy One of Israel says: Because you reject this message and instead put your trust in oppression and dishonesty, and lean on these things for support:

Go and announce this message toward the north: 'Come back, unfaithful Israel,' says the LORD. 'I will not pour out my anger on you, because I am full of mercy,' says the LORD. 'I will not stay angry forever.'

Then I said, 'Oh, Lord God! Look, the prophets are telling the people, "You won't experience war, and you won't go hungry. Instead, I will give you lasting peace in this place."'
