Jeremiah 30:18-24

18“Thus says the Lord, ‘Behold (hear this), I will restore the fortunes of the tents of Jacob And have mercy on his dwelling places; The city will be rebuilt on its [old, mound-like] ruin, And the palace will stand on its rightful place.

19From them (city, palace) will come [songs of] thanksgiving And the voices of those who dance and celebrate. And I will multiply them and they will not be diminished [in number]; I will also honor them and they will not be insignificant.

20Their children too will be as in former times, And their congregation will be established before Me; And I will punish all their oppressors.

21Their prince will be one of them, And their ruler will come forward from among them. I will bring him near and he shall approach Me, For who is he who would have the boldness and would dare [on his own initiative] to risk his life to approach Me?’ says the Lord.

22‘Then you shall be My people, And I will be your God.’ ”

23Behold, the tempest of the Lord! Wrath has gone forth, A sweeping and gathering tempest; It will burst on the head of the wicked.

24The fierce (righteous) anger of the Lord will not turn back Until He has fulfilled and until He has accomplished The intent of His heart (mind); In the latter days you will understand this.
