Context of Jeremiah 31:14

12Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow together to the goodness of Yhwh, for wheat, and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all. 13Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and old together: for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow. And I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people shall be satisfied with my goodness, saith Yhwh. 15Thus saith Yhwh; A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping; Rachel weeping for her children refused to be comforted for her children, because they were not. 16Thus saith Yhwh; Refrain thy voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears: for thy work shall be rewarded, saith Yhwh; and they shall come again from the land of the enemy.
