Jeremiah 31:1-14

1“At that timeH6256,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068, “I will be the 1GodH430 of allH3605 the 2familiesH4940 of IsraelH3478, and they shall be My peopleH5971.”

2ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559: “The peopleH5971 whoH8300 survivedH8300 the swordH2719 3FoundH4672 graceH2580 in the wildernessH4057-- IsraelH3478, when it wentH1980 to 4findH7280 its restH7280.”3The LordH3068 appearedH7200 to 5him 6longH7350 agoH7350, saying, “I have 7lovedH157 you with an everlastingH5769 loveH160; ThereforeH5921H3651 I have drawnH4900 you outH4900 with 8kindnessH2617.49I will buildH1129 you againH5750 and you will be rebuiltH1129, VirginH1330 of IsraelH3478! You will 10takeH5710 up your 11tambourinesH8596 againH5750, And goH3318 outH3318 to the dancesH4234 of the 12revelersH7832.5AgainH5750 you will 13plantH5193 vineyardsH3754 On the 14hillsH2022 of SamariaH8111; The plantersH5193 will plantH5193 And will 15enjoyH2490 the fruit.6For thereH3426 will beH3426 a dayH3117 when watchmenH5341 On the hillsH2022 of EphraimH669 callH7121 outH7121, ‘AriseH6965, and 16let’s goH5927 upH5927 to ZionH6726, To the LordH3068 our GodH430.’”

7For thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559: “17SingH7442 aloudH7442 with joyH8057 for JacobH3290, And be joyfulH6670 with the 1819chiefH7218 of the nationsH1471; ProclaimH8085, giveH1984 praiseH1984, and sayH559, ‘LordH3068, 20saveH3467 Your peopleH5971, The 21remnantH7611 of IsraelH3478!’8BeholdH2009, I am 22bringingH935 them from the northH6828 countryH776, And I will 23gatherH6908 them from the remoteH3411 partsH3411 of the earthH776, Among them those who are 24blindH5787 and those who 25limpH6455, The pregnantH2030 womanH2030 and she who is inH3205 laborH3205, togetherH3164; They will returnH7725 hereH2008 as a greatH1419 assemblyH6951.926They will comeH935 with weepingH1065, And by pleadingH8469 I will bringH2986 them; I will leadH1980 them by 27streamsH5158 of watersH4325, On a straightH3477 pathH1870 on which they will 28not stumbleH3782; For I amH1961 a 29fatherH1 to IsraelH3478, And EphraimH669 is 30My firstbornH1060.”

10HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LordH3068, you nationsH1471, And declareH5046 it in the 31coastlandsH339 farH4801 awayH4801, And sayH559, “He who scatteredH2219 IsraelH3478 will 32gatherH6908 him, And He will keepH8104 him as a 33shepherdH7462 keeps his flockH5739.”11For the LordH3068 has 34ransomedH6299 JacobH3290 And redeemedH1350 him from the handH3027 of him who was 35strongerH2389 thanH4480 he.12“They will 36comeH935 and shoutH7442 forH7442 joyH7442 on the 37heightH4791 of ZionH6726, And they will be 38radiantH5102 overH413 the 39bountyH2898 of the LordH3068-- OverH5921 the 40grainH1715, the newH8492 wineH8492, the oilH3323, And overH5921 the youngH1121 of the 41flockH6629 and the herdH1241. And their lifeH5315 will be like a 42wateredH7302 gardenH1588, And they will 43neverH3808H5750 languishH1669 againH3254.13ThenH227 the virginH1330 will rejoiceH8055 in the 44danceH4234, And the youngH970 menH970 and the oldH2205 togetherH3164; For I will 45turnH2015 their mourningH60 into joyH8342 And comfortH5162 them, and giveH8055 them 46joyH8055 for their sorrowH3015.14I will refreshH7301 the soulH5315 of the priestsH3548 with 47abundanceH1880, And My peopleH5971 will beH7646 48satisfiedH7646 with My goodnessH2898,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.
