Jeremiah 30
Deliverance from Captivity Promised
1The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying, 2“Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, ‘1Write all the words which I have spoken to you in a book. 3For behold, 2days are coming,’ declares the Lord, ‘when I will 3restore the 4fortunes of My people 5Israel and Judah.’ The Lord says, ‘I will also 6bring them back to the land that I gave to their forefathers and they shall possess it.’”
4Now these are the words which the Lord spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah:
5“For thus says the Lord, ‘7I have heard a sound of 8terror, Of dread, and there is no peace.6Ask now, and see If a male can give birth. Why do I see every man With his hands on his loins, 9as a woman in childbirth? And why have all faces turned pale?7Alas! for that 10day is great, There is 11none like it; And it is the time of Jacob’s 12distress, But he will be 13saved from it.
8‘It shall come about on that day,’ declares the Lord of hosts, ‘that I will 14break his yoke from off 15their neck and will tear off 16their 17bonds; and strangers will no longer 18make 19them their slaves. 9But they shall serve the Lord their God and 20David their king, whom I will raise up for them.1021Fear not, O Jacob My servant,’ declares the Lord, ‘And do not be dismayed, O Israel; For behold, I will save you 22from afar And your 23offspring from the land of their captivity. And Jacob will return and will be 24quiet and at ease, And 25no one will make him afraid.11For 26I am with you,’ declares the Lord, ‘to save you; For I will 27destroy completely all the nations where I have scattered you, Only I will 28not destroy you completely. But I will 29chasten you justly And will by no means leave you unpunished.’
12“For thus says the Lord, ‘Your wound is incurable And your 30injury is serious.13There is no one to plead your cause; No healing for your sore, 31No recovery for you.14All your 32lovers have forgotten you, They do not seek you; For I have 33wounded you with the wound of an enemy, With the 34punishment of a 35cruel one, Because your 36iniquity is great And your 37sins are numerous.15Why do you cry out over your injury? Your pain is incurable. Because your iniquity is great And your sins are numerous, I have done these things to you.16Therefore all who 38devour you will be devoured; And all your adversaries, every one of them, 39will go into captivity; And those who plunder you will be for plunder, And all who prey upon you I will give for prey.17For I will 40restore you to 4142health And I will heal you of your wounds,’ declares the Lord, ‘Because they have called you an 43outcast, saying: “It is Zion; no one 44cares for her.”’
Restoration of Jacob
18“Thus says the Lord, ‘Behold, I will 45restore the 46fortunes of the tents of Jacob And 47have compassion on his dwelling places; And the 48city will be rebuilt on its ruin, And the 49palace will stand on its rightful place.19From them will proceed 50thanksgiving And the voice of those who 5152celebrate; And I will 53multiply them and they will not be diminished; I will also 54honor them and they will not be insignificant.2055Their children also will be as formerly, And 56their congregation shall be 57established before Me; And I will punish all 58their oppressors.2159Their 60leader shall be one of them, And 61their ruler shall come forth from 62their midst; And I will 63bring him near and he shall approach Me; For 64who would dare to risk his life to 65approach Me?’ declares the Lord.22‘You shall be 66My people, And I will be your God.’”
23Behold, the 67tempest of the Lord! Wrath has gone forth, A 68sweeping tempest; It will burst on the head of the wicked.24The 69fierce anger of the Lord will not turn back Until He has performed and until He has accomplished The intent of His heart; In the 70latter days you will understand this.
