Jeremiah 30:3-22

3For behold, 1days are coming,’ declares the Lord, ‘when I will 2restore the 3fortunes of My people 4Israel and Judah.’ The Lord says, ‘I will also 5bring 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, ‘6I have heard a sound of 7terror, 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, 8as a woman in childbirth? And why have all faces turned pale?7Alas! for that 9day is great, There is 10none like it; And it is the time of Jacob’s 11distress, But he will be 12saved from it.

8‘It shall come about on that day,’ declares the Lord of hosts, ‘that I will 13break his yoke from off 14their neck and will tear off 15their 16bonds; and strangers will no longer 17make 18them their slaves. 9But they shall serve the Lord their God and 19David their king, whom I will raise up for them.1020Fear not, O Jacob My servant,’ declares the Lord, ‘And do not be dismayed, O Israel; For behold, I will save you 21from afar And your 22offspring from the land of their captivity. And Jacob will return and will be 23quiet and at ease, And 24no one will make him afraid.11For 25I am with you,’ declares the Lord, ‘to save you; For I will 26destroy completely all the nations where I have scattered you, Only I will 27not destroy you completely. But I will 28chasten you justly And will by no means leave you unpunished.’

12“For thus says the Lord, ‘Your wound is incurable And your 29injury is serious.13There is no one to plead your cause; No healing for your sore, 30No recovery for you.14All your 31lovers have forgotten you, They do not seek you; For I have 32wounded you with the wound of an enemy, With the 33punishment of a 34cruel one, Because your 35iniquity is great And your 36sins 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 37devour you will be devoured; And all your adversaries, every one of them, 38will 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 39restore you to 4041health And I will heal you of your wounds,’ declares the Lord, ‘Because they have called you an 42outcast, saying: “It is Zion; no one 43cares for her.”’

18“Thus says the Lord, ‘Behold, I will 44restore the 45fortunes of the tents of Jacob And 46have compassion on his dwelling places; And the 47city will be rebuilt on its ruin, And the 48palace will stand on its rightful place.19From them will proceed 49thanksgiving And the voice of those who 5051celebrate; And I will 52multiply them and they will not be diminished; I will also 53honor them and they will not be insignificant.2054Their children also will be as formerly, And 55their congregation shall be 56established before Me; And I will punish all 57their oppressors.2158Their 59leader shall be one of them, And 60their ruler shall come forth from 61their midst; And I will 62bring him near and he shall approach Me; For 63who would dare to risk his life to 64approach Me?’ declares the Lord.22‘You shall be 65My people, And I will be your God.’”
