However, there is debate about whether these are the response of the people to the Lord ’s invitation, a response which is said to be inadequate according to the continuation in 4:1-4 , or whether these are the Lord ’s model for Israel’s confession of repentance to which he adds further instructions about the proper heart attitude that should accompany it in 4:1-4 . The former implies a dialogue with an unmarked twofold shift in speaker between 3:22 b-25 and 4:1-4:4 while the latter assumes the same main speaker throughout with an unmarked instruction only in 3:22 b-25.
