Surely as a wife treacherously departs from her husband, so you have dealt treacherously with me, O house of Israel, says Jehovah.
A voice was heard on the high places weeping, cryings of the sons of Israel; for they have perverted their way, and they have forgotten Jehovah their God.
Return, O backsliding sons, and I will heal your backslidings. Behold, we come to You; for You are Jehovah our God.
Truly, for delusion comes from the high hills, tumult on the mountains. Truly, in Jehovah our God is the salvation of Israel. Jeremiah 3:20-23
House of Israel or house of Jacob = America and United Kingdom
When the modern nation of Israel is referred to it is called the house of Judah.
Hills and mountains = other countries
We trust in alliances and treaties and have forgotten God, even denying His existance. This is what God calls, in prophecy, whoredoms.
For You have forsaken Your people the house of Jacob, because they have become full from the east, and are fortune-tellers like the Philistines. And they clap their hands with the children of strangers.
And their land is full of silver and gold. There is no end of their treasures and their land is full of horses; nor an end of their chariots.
And their land is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made.
And the man bowed down, and man was humbled, but You do not lift them up.
Enter into the rock and hide in the dust for fear of Jehovah, and for the glory of His majesty.
The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the pride of men shall be bowed down, and Jehovah alone shall be exalted in that day.
For the day of Jehovah of Hosts shall be on every proud and lofty one, and on every lifted up one; and he shall be brought low, Isaiah 2: 6-12
