Context of Jeremiah 30:11
9But they will be subject to the Lord their God and to the Davidic ruler whom I will raise up as king over them. 10So I, the Lord, tell you not to be afraid, you descendants of Jacob, my servants. Do not be terrified, people of Israel. For I will rescue you and your descendants from a faraway land where you are captives. The descendants of Jacob will return to their land and enjoy peace. They will be secure and no one will terrify them. For I, the Lord, affirm that I will be with you and will rescue you. I will completely destroy all the nations where I scattered you. But I will not completely destroy you. I will indeed discipline you, but only in due measure. I will not allow you to go entirely unpunished.” 12Moreover, the Lord says to the people of Zion, “Your injuries are incurable; your wounds are severe. 13There is no one to plead your cause. There are no remedies for your wounds. There is no healing for you.
