Jeremiah 31:21-30

21SetH7760 thee up waymarks, makeH7760 thee guide-posts; setH7760 thy heartH3820 toward the highwayH4546, even the wayH1870 by which thou wentest: turnH7725 again, O virginH1330 of IsraelH3478, turnH7725 again to these thy citiesH5892. 22How long wilt thou goH5437 hither and thither, O thou backsliding daughterH1323? for Jehovah hath createdH1254 a newH2319 thing in the earthH776: A woman shall encompass a manH1397.

23ThusH3541 saith Jehovah of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, YetH5750 againH5750 shall they use this speech in the landH776 of JudahH3063 and in the citiesH5892 thereof, when I shall bringH7725 againH5750 their captivityH7622: Jehovah blessH1288 thee, O habitation of righteousnessH6664, O mountainH2022 of holinessH6944. 24And JudahH3063 and all the citiesH5892 thereof shall dwellH3427 therein togetherH3162, the husbandmen, and they that go about with flocksH5739. 25For I have satiated the wearyH5889 soulH5315, and every sorrowful soulH5315 have I replenished. 26Upon this I awaked, and beheld; and my sleepH8142 was sweet unto me.

27Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saith Jehovah, that I will sowH2232 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 with the seedH2233 of manH120, and with the seedH2233 of beast. 28And it shall come to pass that, like as I have watchedH8245 over them to pluckH5428 up and to breakH2040 downH5422 and to overthrow and to destroyH6 and to afflict, soH3651 will I watchH8245 over them to buildH1129 and to plantH5193, saith Jehovah. 29In those daysH3117 they shall sayH559 no more, The fathersH1 have eatenH398 sourH1155 grapesH1155, and the children’s teethH8127 are set on edge. 30But every oneH376 shall dieH4191 for his own iniquityH5771: every manH376 that eateth the sourH1155 grapesH1155, his teethH8127 shall be set on edge.
