Jeremiah 31:15-20
15This is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saysH559:
“A voiceH6963 is heardH8085 in RamahH7414,mourningH5092 and greatH8563 weepingH1065,RachelH7354 weepingH1058 forH5921 her childrenH1121and refusingH3985 to be comfortedH5162,becauseH3588 they are no moreH369.”1
16This is whatH3541 the LORDH3068 saysH559:
“KeepH4513 your voiceH6963 from weepingH1065and your eyesH5869 from tearsH1832,forH3588 the rewardH7939 for your workH6468 will comeH3426,declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.Then your children will returnH7725from the landH776 of the enemyH341.17So there isH3426 hopeH8615 for your futureH319,declaresH5002 the LORDH3068,and your childrenH1121 will returnH7725to their own landH1366.
‘You disciplined me severelyH3256,like an untrainedH3808H3925 calfH5695.Restore meH7725, that I may returnH7725,forH3588 YouH859 are the LORDH3068 my GodH430.19AfterH310 I returnedH7725, I repentedH5162;and afterH310 I was instructedH3045, I struckH5606H5921 my thigh in griefH3409.I was ashamedH954 andH1571 humiliatedH3637becauseH3588 I boreH5375 the disgraceH2781 of my youthH5271.’
