Context of Jeremiah 30:19
17People say that nobody takes care of you, people of Zion. They say that I have chased you out of your land. But I will give you back your health. I will make your wounds better.’ That is what the Lord says. 18The Lord says, ‘I will bring back Jacob's descendants to their own land. Enemies have knocked down their houses, but I will repair the homes where they lived. I will be kind to them, so that each family can live safely. The city will stand again in its right place. The palace will also stand where it was before. In those places you will hear happy songs, as people thank God. People will laugh aloud because they are so happy. I will make them grow in number. Their descendants will be many. I will cause other nations to give them honour. They will no longer insult my people. 20Jacob's descendants will be strong again, as they were long ago. They will serve me together as one group of people. I will punish anyone who wants to hurt them. 21One of their own people will rule them as king. I will ask him to come near to me, and he will come near. Nobody would be brave enough to come near to me, unless I asked him to come.’ That is what the Lord says.
