Jeremiah 31:15-22
15Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; A voiceH6963 was heardH8085 in RamahH7414, lamentationH5092, and bitterH8563 weepingH1065; RachelH7354 weepingH1058 for her childrenH1121 refusedH3985 to be comfortedH5162 for her childrenH1121, because they were not. 16Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; RestrainH4513 thy voiceH6963 from weepingH1065, and thy eyesH5869 from tearsH1832: for thy workH6468 shall beH3426 rewardedH7939, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; and they shall come againH7725 from the landH776 of the enemyH341. 17And there isH3426 hopeH8615 in thy endH319, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that thy childrenH1121 shall come againH7725 to their own borderH1366.
18I have surelyH8085 heardH8085 EphraimH669 bemoaningH5110 himself thus ; Thou hast chastisedH3256 me, and I was chastisedH3256, as a bullH5695 unaccustomedH3808H3925 to the yoke : turnH7725 thou me, and I shall be turnedH7725; for thou art the LORDH3068 my GodH430. 19Surely afterH310 I was turnedH7725, I repentedH5162; and afterH310 I was instructedH3045, I smoteH5606 upon my thighH3409: I was ashamedH954, and even confoundedH3637, because I boreH5375 the reproachH2781 of my youthH5271. 20Is EphraimH669 my dearH3357 sonH1121? is he a pleasantH8191 childH3206? for sinceH1767 I spokeH1696 against him, I do earnestlyH2142 rememberH2142 him still: therefore my heartH4578 is troubledH1993 for him; I will surelyH7355 have mercyH7355 upon him, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.1 21Set thee upH5324 waymarksH6725, makeH7760 thee high heapsH8564: setH7896 thy heartH3820 toward the highwayH4546, even the wayH1870 which thou wentestH1980: turn againH7725, O virginH1330 of IsraelH3478, turn againH7725 to these thy citiesH5892. 22How long wilt thou wander aboutH2559, O thou backslidingH7728 daughterH1323? for the LORDH3068 hath createdH1254 a new thingH2319 in the earthH776, A womanH5347 shall encompassH5437 a manH1397.
