Jeremiah 31:16-21

16ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068: Refrain thy voiceH6963 from weepingH1065, and thine eyesH5869 from tearsH1832: for thy workH6468 shall be rewardedH7939, saith the LORDH3068; and they shall comeH7725 againH7725 from the landH776 of the enemyH341.

17And there is hopeH8615 for thy latterH319 endH319, saith the LORDH3068; and thy childrenH1121 shall comeH7725 againH7725 to their own borderH1366.

18I have surelyH3588 heardH8085 EphraimH669 bemoaning himselfH3808 thusH8085, Thou hast chastisedH3256 meH7725, and I was chastisedH3256, as a calfH5695 unaccustomed to the yoke: turnH7725 thou meH7725, and I shall be turnedH7725; for thou art the LORDH3068 my GodH430.

19SurelyH3588 afterH310 that I was turnedH7725, I repentedH5162; and afterH310 that I was instructedH3045, I smoteH5606 uponH5921 my thighH3409: I was ashamedH954, yeaH3588, evenH1571 confoundedH3637, becauseH3588 I did bearH5375 the reproachH2781 of my youthH5271.

20Is EphraimH669 my dearH3357 sonH1121? is he a pleasant childH3206? for as oftenH1767 as I speakH1696 againstH5921 him, I doH518 earnestly rememberH2142 him stillH5750: therefore my bowelsH4578 are troubled for him; I will surelyH3588 have mercyH7355 uponH5921 him, saith the LORDH3068.

21SetH7760 thee upH5324 waymarks, makeH7760 thee guide-posts: setH7760 thine heartH3820 towardH413 the highwayH4546, even the wayH1870 by whichH428 thou wentest: turnH7725 againH7725, O virginH1330 of IsraelH3478, turnH7725 againH7725 to theseH428 thy citiesH5892.
