Jeremiah 31:7-14
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 firstbornH1060.1
10HearH8085 the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068, O ye nationsH1471, and declareH5046 it in the islesH339 afar offH4801, and sayH559, He that scatteredH2219 IsraelH3478 will gatherH6908 him, and keepH8104 him, as a shepherdH7462 doth his flockH5739. 11For YhwhH3068 hath redeemedH6299 JacobH3290, and ransomedH1350 him from the handH3027 of him that was strongerH2389 than he. 12Therefore they shall comeH935 and singH7442 in the heightH4791 of ZionH6726, and shall flow togetherH5102 to the goodnessH2898 of YhwhH3068, for wheatH1715, and for wineH8492, and for oilH3323, and for the youngH1121 of the flockH6629 and of the herdH1241: and their soulH5315 shall be as a wateredH7302 gardenH1588; and they shall not sorrowH1669 any moreH3254 at all. 13Then shall the virginH1330 rejoiceH8055 in the danceH4234, both young menH970 and oldH2205 togetherH3162: for I will turnH2015 their mourningH60 into joyH8342, and will comfortH5162 them, and make them rejoiceH8055 from their sorrowH3015. 14And I will satiateH7301 the soulH5315 of the priestsH3548 with fatnessH1880, and my peopleH5971 shall be satisfiedH7646 with my goodnessH2898, saithH5002 YhwhH3068.
