13  O all ye that are ^aspared because ye were more righteous than they, will ye not now return unto me, and repent of your sins, and be converted, that I may heal you?

  3  And Samuel spake unto all the house of Israel, saying, If ye do ^areturn unto the Lord with all your hearts, then put away the strange gods and Ashtaroth from among you, and prepare your hearts unto the Lord, and serve him only: and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.

  11  But if ye will repent and ^areturn unto the Lord your God I will turn away mine anger, saith the Lord; yea, thus saith the Lord, blessed are they who will repent and turn unto me, but wo unto him that repenteth not.

  7  Even from the days of your fathers ye are gone away from mine ordinances, and have not kept them. ^bReturn unto me and I will return unto you, saith the Lord of Hosts. But ye say: Wherein shall we return?

  26  A new ^bheart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.

  37  O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have ^dgathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!

  22  But behold, my son, I recommend thee unto God, and I trust in Christ that thou wilt be saved; and I pray unto God that he will spare thy life, to witness the return of his people unto him, or their utter destruction; for I know that they must perish except they ^crepent and return unto him.

  24  O, ye nations of the earth, how often would I have gathered you together as a ^ahen gathereth her chickens under her wings, but ye would not!
