Jeremiah 30:3-9

3The days are coming,” declares the Lord, “when I will bring my people Israel and Judah back from captivity. I will bring them back to the land that I gave their ancestors, and they will take possession of it.”

4This is the message that the Lord spoke about Israel and Judah:

5“This is what the Lord says: “We hear cries of fear, cries of panic, not cries of peace.

6Ask now, and see: Can a man give birth to a child? Why, then, do I see every strong man holding his stomach in pain like a woman giving birth to a child? Why has every face turned pale?

7How terrible that day will be! There will be no other day like it. It will be a time of calamity for the descendants of Jacob, but they will be rescued from it.

8“On that day,” declares the Lord of Armies, “I will break the yokes  off your necks and tear off your ropes. Foreigners will no longer make you serve them.

9You will serve the Lord your God and David your king. I will establish him for you.
