Jeremiah 30:4-11

4Now these are the words which the Lord spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah:

5“For thus says the Lord, ‘1I have heard a sound of 2terror, 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, 3as a woman in childbirth? And why have all faces turned pale?7Alas! for that 4day is great, There is 5none like it; And it is the time of Jacob’s 6distress, But he will be 7saved from it.

8‘It shall come about on that day,’ declares the Lord of hosts, ‘that I will 8break his yoke from off 9their neck and will tear off 10their 11bonds; and strangers will no longer 12make 13them their slaves. 9But they shall serve the Lord their God and 14David their king, whom I will raise up for them.10 15Fear not, O Jacob My servant,’ declares the Lord, ‘And do not be dismayed, O Israel; For behold, I will save you 16from afar And your 17offspring from the land of their captivity. And Jacob will return and will be 18quiet and at ease, And 19no one will make him afraid.11For 20I am with you,’ declares the Lord, ‘to save you; For I will 21destroy completely all the nations where I have scattered you, Only I will 22not destroy you completely. But I will 23chasten you justly And will by no means leave you unpunished.’
