Jeremiah 16:14-21
14“1ThereforeH3651 beholdH2009, daysH3117 are comingH935,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “when it will noH3808 longerH5750 be saidH559, ‘As the LordH3068 livesH2416, whoH834 2broughtH5927 upH5927 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714,’ 15but, ‘As the LordH3068 livesH2416, whoH834 broughtH5927 upH5927 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 from the 3landH776 of the northH6828 and from allH3605 the landsH776 whereH834H8033 He had banishedH5080 them.’ For I will restoreH7725 them to their own landH127 whichH834 I gaveH5414 to their fathersH1.
16“BeholdH2009, I am going to sendH7971 for manyH7227 4fishermenH1728,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “and they will fishH1770 for them; and afterwardH310H3651 I will sendH7971 for manyH7227 huntersH6719, and they will 5huntH6679 them 6from everyH3605 mountainH2022 and everyH3605 hillH1389 and from the cleftsH5357 of the rocksH5553. 177For My eyesH5869 are on allH3605 their waysH1870; they are not hiddenH5641 from My faceH6440, 8norH3808 is their wrongdoingH5771 concealedH6845 from My eyesH5869. 18I will firstH7223 repayH7999 them 9doubleH4932 for their wrongdoingH5771 and their sinH2403, becauseH5921 they have 10defiledH2490 My landH776; they have filledH4390 My inheritanceH5159 with the carcassesH5038 of their 11detestableH8251 idolsH8251 and their abominationsH8441.”
19LordH3068, my 12strengthH5797 and my strongholdH4581, And my 13refugeH4498 in the dayH3117 of distressH6869, To You the 14nationsH1471 will comeH935 From the endsH657 of the earthH776 and sayH559, “Our fathersH1 have inheritedH5157 nothingH389 butH389 15falsehoodH8267, FutilityH1892, and 1617things of noH369 benefitH3276.”20Can a personH120 makeH6213 godsH430 for himself? But they are 18not godsH430!
21“ThereforeH3651 beholdH2009, I am going to make them knowH3045-- ThisH2088 timeH6471 I will 19make them knowH3045 My 20powerH3027 and My mightH1369; And they will 21knowH3045 that My nameH8034 is the LordH3068.”
