Revised Version 1895
Jeremiah 3:14-23
14ReturnH7725, O backsliding childrenH1121, saith the LORDH3068; for I am a husbandH1166 unto youH3588: and I will takeH3947 youH3588 one of a cityH5892, and twoH8147 of a familyH4940, and I will bringH935 youH3588 to ZionH6726:
15and I will giveH5414 youH5414 shepherdsH7462 according to mine heartH3820, which shall feedH7462 youH5414 with knowledgeH1844 and understandingH3820.
16And it shall comeH1961 to passH1961, when ye be multipliedH7235 and increasedH6509 in the landH776, in thoseH1992 daysH3117, saith the LORDH3068, they shall sayH559 noH3808 moreH5750, The arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068; neitherH3808 shall it comeH1961 to mindH3820: neitherH3808 shall they rememberH2142 it; neitherH3808 shall they visitH6485 it; neitherH3808 shall that be doneH6213 anyH5750 moreH5750.
17At that time they shall callH7121 JerusalemH3389 the throneH3678 of the LORDH3068; and allH3605 the nationsH1471 shall be gatheredH6960 unto it, to the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068, to JerusalemH3389: neitherH3808 shall they walk anyH3605 moreH5750 afterH310 the stubbornnessH8307 of their evilH7451 heartH3820.
18In thoseH834 daysH3117 the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 shall walk with the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, and they shall comeH935 togetherH3162 outH5921 of the landH776 of the northH6828 to the landH776 that I gaveH5157 for an inheritanceH5157 unto your fathersH1.
19But I saidH559, HowH349 shall I putH5414 thee among the childrenH1121, and giveH5414 thee a pleasantH2532 landH776, a goodly heritageH5159 of the hostsH6635 of the nationsH1471? and I saidH559, Ye shall callH7121 meH5414 My fatherH1; and shall notH3808 turnH7725 awayH7725 from followingH310 meH5414.
20SurelyH403 as a wifeH802 treacherouslyH898 departeth from herH802 husbandH7453, soH3651 have ye dealtH898 treacherouslyH898 with meH1004, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, saith the LORDH3068.
21A voiceH6963 is heardH8085 uponH5921 the bareH8205 heightsH8205, the weepingH1065 and the supplicationsH8469 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478; for that they have perverted their wayH1870, they have forgottenH7911 the LORDH3068 their GodH430.
22ReturnH7725, ye backsliding childrenH1121, I will healH7495 your backslidings, BeholdH2005, weH3588 are comeH857 unto thee; for thou art the LORDH3068 our GodH430.
23TrulyH403 in vainH8267 is the help that is looked for from the hillsH1389, the tumultH1995 on the mountainsH2022: trulyH403 in the LORDH3068 our GodH430 is the salvationH8668 of IsraelH3478.
