Jeremiah 31:2-22

2ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, “The peopleH5971 whoH8300 survivedH8300 the swordH2719 1FoundH4672 graceH2580 in the wildernessH4057-- IsraelH3478, when it wentH1980 to 2findH7280 its restH7280.”3The LordH3068 appearedH7200 to 3him from afarH7350, saying, “I have 4lovedH157 you with an everlastingH5769 loveH160; ThereforeH5921H3651 I have drawnH4900 you with 5lovingkindnessH2617.46AgainH5750 I will buildH1129 you and you will be rebuiltH1129, O virginH1330 of IsraelH3478! AgainH5750 you will 7takeH5710 up your 8tambourinesH8596, And goH3318 forthH3318 to the dancesH4234 of the 9merrymakersH7832.5AgainH5750 you will 10plantH5193 vineyardsH3754 On the 11hillsH2022 of SamariaH8111; The plantersH5193 will plantH5193 And will 12enjoyH2490 them.6For thereH3426 will be a dayH3117 when watchmenH5341 On the hillsH2022 of EphraimH669 callH7121 out, ‘AriseH6965, and 13let us goH5927 up to ZionH6726, To the LordH3068 our GodH430.’”

7For thusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, “14SingH7442 aloudH7442 with gladnessH8057 for JacobH3290, And shoutH6670 among the 1516chiefH7218 of the nationsH1471; ProclaimH8085, giveH1984 praiseH1984 and sayH559, ‘O LordH3068, 17saveH3467 Your peopleH5971, The 18remnantH7611 of IsraelH3478.’8BeholdH2009, I am 19bringingH935 them from the northH6828 countryH776, And I will 20gatherH6908 them from the remoteH3411 partsH3411 of the earthH776, Among them the 21blindH5787 and the 22lameH6455, The womanH2030 with childH2030 and she who is in laborH3205 with child, togetherH3164; A greatH1419 23companyH6951, they will returnH7725 hereH2008.924With weepingH1065 they will comeH935, And by supplicationH8469 I will leadH2986 them; I will make them walkH1980 by 25streamsH5158 of watersH4325, On a straightH3477 pathH1870 in which they will 26not stumbleH3782; For I amH1961 a 27fatherH1 to IsraelH3478, And EphraimH669 is 28My firstbornH1060.”

10HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LordH3068, O nationsH1471, And declareH5046 in the 29coastlandsH339 afarH4801 offH4801, And sayH559, “He who scatteredH2219 IsraelH3478 will 30gatherH6908 him And keepH8104 him as a 31shepherdH7462 keeps his flockH5739.”11For the LordH3068 has 32ransomedH6299 JacobH3290 And redeemedH1350 him from the handH3027 of him whoH2389 was 33strongerH2389 thanH4480 he.12“They will 34comeH935 and shoutH7442 for joyH7442 on the 35heightH4791 of ZionH6726, And they will be 36radiantH5102 overH413 the 37bountyH2898 of the LordH3068-- OverH5921 the 38grainH1715 and the newH8492 wineH8492 and the oilH3323, And overH5921 the youngH1121 of the 39flockH6629 and the herdH1241; And their lifeH5315 will be like a 40wateredH7302 gardenH1588, And they will 41neverH3808H5750 languishH1669 againH3254.13ThenH227 the virginH1330 will rejoiceH8055 in the 42danceH4234, And the youngH970 menH970 and the oldH2205, togetherH3164, For I will 43turnH2015 their mourningH60 into joyH8342 And will comfortH5162 them and giveH8055 them 44joyH8055 for their sorrowH3015.14I will 45fillH7301 the soulH5315 of the priestsH3548 with 46abundanceH1880, And My peopleH5971 will be 47satisfiedH7646 with My goodnessH2898,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.

15ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, “48A voiceH6963 is heardH8085 in 49RamahH7414, LamentationH5092 and bitterH8563 weepingH1065. RachelH7354 is weepingH1065 for her childrenH1121; She 50refusesH3985 to be comfortedH5162 for her childrenH1121, BecauseH3588 51they are noH369 moreH369.” 16ThusH3541 saysH559 the LordH3068, “52RestrainH4513 your voiceH6963 from weepingH1065 And your eyesH5869 from tearsH1832; For your 53workH6468 will be rewardedH7939,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “And they will 54returnH7725 from the landH776 of the enemyH340.17ThereH3426 is 55hopeH8615 for your futureH319,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “And your childrenH1121 will returnH7725 to their own territoryH1366.18I have surelyH8085 heardH8085 EphraimH669 56grievingH5110, ‘You have 57chastisedH3256 me, and I was chastisedH3256, Like an untrainedH3808H3925 58calfH5695; 59BringH7725 me backH7725 that I may be restoredH7725, For You are the LordH3068 my GodH430.19For afterH310 I turnedH7725 backH7725, I 60repentedH5162; And afterH310 I was instructedH3045, I 61smoteH5606 on my thighH3409; I was 62ashamedH954 and alsoH1571 humiliatedH3637 BecauseH3588 I boreH5375 the reproachH2781 of my youthH5271.’20Is 63EphraimH669 My dearH3357 sonH1121? Is he a delightfulH8191 childH3206? IndeedH3588, as oftenH1767 as I have spokenH1696 against him, I certainlyH2142 still rememberH2142 him; ThereforeH5921H3651 My 6465heartH4578 yearnsH1993 for him; I will surelyH7355 66haveH7355 mercyH7355 on him,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.

21“SetH5324 up for yourself roadmarksH6725, PlaceH7760 for yourself guidepostsH8564; 67DirectH7896 your 68mindH3820 to the highwayH4546, The wayH1870 by which you wentH1980. 69ReturnH7725, O virginH1330 of IsraelH3478, ReturnH7725 to theseH428 your citiesH5892.22HowH4970 longH5704H4970 will you goH2559 hereH2559 and thereH2559, O 70faithlessH7728 daughterH1323? For the LordH3068 has createdH1254 a newH2319 thingH2319 in the earthH776-- A womanH5347 will encompassH5437 a manH1397.”
