Jeremiah 30:1-11

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.10 21Fear 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.’
