Jeremiah 31:6-14
6For there will be a day when watchmen On the hills of Ephraim call out, ‘Arise, and 1let us go up to Zion, To the Lord our God.’”
7For thus says the Lord, “2Sing aloud with gladness for Jacob, And shout among the 34chief of the nations; Proclaim, give praise and say, ‘O Lord, 5save Your people, The 6remnant of Israel.’8Behold, I am 7bringing them from the north country, And I will 8gather them from the remote parts of the earth, Among them the 9blind and the 10lame, The woman with child and she who is in labor with child, together; A great 11company, they will return here.912With weeping they will come, And by supplication I will lead them; I will make them walk by 13streams of waters, On a straight path in which they will 14not stumble; For I am a 15father to Israel, And Ephraim is 16My firstborn.”
10Hear the word of the Lord, O nations, And declare in the 17coastlands afar off, And say, “He who scattered Israel will 18gather him And keep him as a 19shepherd keeps his flock.”11For the Lord has 20ransomed Jacob And redeemed him from the hand of him who was 21stronger than he.12“They will 22come and shout for joy on the 23height of Zion, And they will be 24radiant over the 25bounty of the Lord-- Over the 26grain and the new wine and the oil, And over the young of the 27flock and the herd; And their life will be like a 28watered garden, And they will 29never languish again.13Then the virgin will rejoice in the 30dance, And the young men and the old, together, For I will 31turn their mourning into joy And will comfort them and give them 32joy for their sorrow.14I will 33fill the soul of the priests with 34abundance, And My people will be 35satisfied with My goodness,” declares the Lord.
