Context of Jeremiah 30:11
9Instead, they will serve the Lord their God. They will serve David's descendant. I will raise that man up to be their king.’ 10The Lord says, ‘Do not be afraid, descendants of Jacob, my servants. People of Israel, do not be upset. I will rescue you and your descendants from your enemies. I will bring you back from the land far away, where you are prisoners. Jacob's descendants will return to their own land. They will live there safely in peace. There will be no enemies to make them afraid.’ The Lord says, ‘I am with you and I will save you. I have sent you away to live in foreign lands. That was the punishment that you deserved. I will completely destroy the nations where I sent you to live. But I will not completely destroy you. I will certainly punish you, but only as much as you deserve.’ 12The Lord says this to Zion's people: ‘You have received very bad wounds. Nobody can make you well again. 13There is no one who will speak on your behalf. There is no medicine that can make you well.
