Jeremiah 31:1-9
1At the same timeH6256, saithH5002 YhwhH3068, will I be the GodH430 of all the familiesH4940 of IsraelH3478, and they shall be my peopleH5971.
2Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068, The peopleH5971 which were leftH8300 of the swordH2719 foundH4672 graceH2580 in the wildernessH4057; even IsraelH3478, when I wentH1980 to cause him to restH7280.
3YhwhH3068 hath appearedH7200 of oldH7350 unto me, saying, Yea, I have lovedH157 thee with an everlastingH5769 loveH160: therefore with lovingkindnessH2617 have I drawnH4900 thee.12
4Again I will buildH1129 thee, and thou shalt be builtH1129, O virginH1330 of IsraelH3478: thou shalt again be adornedH5710 with thy tabretsH8596, and shalt go forthH3318 in the dancesH4234 of them that make merryH7832.3
5Thou shalt yet plantH5193 vinesH3754 upon the mountainsH2022 of SamariaH8111: the plantersH5193 shall plantH5193, and shall eat them as common thingsH2490.4
6For there shall beH3426 a dayH3117, that the watchmenH5341 upon the mountH2022 EphraimH669 shall cryH7121, AriseH6965 ye, and let us go upH5927 to ZionH6726 unto YhwhH3068 our GodH430.
7For thus saithH559 YhwhH3068; SingH7442 with gladnessH8057 for JacobH3290, and shoutH6670 among the chiefH7218 of the nationsH1471: publishH8085 ye, praiseH1984 ye, and sayH559, O YhwhH3068, saveH3467 thy peopleH5971, the remnantH7611 of IsraelH3478.
8Behold, I will bringH935 them from the northH6828 countryH776, and gatherH6908 them from the coastsH3411 of the earthH776, and with them the blindH5787 and the lameH6455, the woman with childH2030 and her that travaileth with childH3205 togetherH3162: a greatH1419 companyH6951 shall returnH7725 thither.
9They shall comeH935 with weepingH1065, and with supplicationsH8469 will I leadH2986 them: I will cause them to walkH3212 by the riversH5158 of watersH4325 in a straightH3477 wayH1870, wherein they shall not stumbleH3782: for I am a fatherH1 to IsraelH3478, and EphraimH669 is my firstbornH1060.5
