31AT THAT time, says the Lord, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they will be My people.H6256H5002H3068H430H4940H3478H5971 2Thus says the Lord: The people who survived the sword found favor in the wilderness [place of exile]--when Israel sought to find rest.H559H3068H5971H8300H2719H4672H2580H4057H3478H1980H7280 3The Lord appeared from of old to me [Israel], saying, Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore with loving-kindness have I drawn you {and} continued My faithfulness to you.H3068H7200H7350H157H5769H160H2617H4900 4Again I will build you and you will be built, O Virgin Israel! You will again be adorned with your timbrels [small one-headed drums] and go forth in the dancing [chorus] of those who make merry.H1129H1129H1330H3478H5710H8596H3318H4234H7832 5Again you shall plant vineyards upon the mountains of Samaria; the planters shall plant and make the fruit common {and} enjoy it [undisturbed].H5193H3754H2022H8111H5193H5193H2490 6For there shall be a day when the watchmen on the hills of Ephraim shall cry out, Arise, and let us go up to Zion, to the Lord our God.H3426H3117H5341H2022H669H7121H6965H5927H6726H3068H430 7For thus says the Lord: Sing aloud with gladness for Jacob, and shout for the head of the nations [on account of the chosen people, Israel]. Proclaim, praise, and say, The Lord has saved His people, the remnant of Israel!H559H3068H7442H8057H3290H6670H7218H1471H8085H1984H559H3068H3467H5971H7611H3478 8Behold, I will bring them from the north country and gather them from the uttermost parts of the earth, and among them will be the blind and the lame, the woman with child and she who labors in childbirth together; a great company, they will return here to Jerusalem.H935H6828H776H6908H3411H776H5787H6455H2030H3205H3162H1419H6951H7725 9They will come with weeping [in penitence and for joy], pouring out prayers [for the future]. I will lead them back; I will cause them to walk by streams of water and bring them in a straight way in which they will not stumble, for I am a Father to Israel, and Ephraim [Israel] is My firstborn.H935H1065H8469H2986H3212H5158H4325H3477H1870H3782H1H3478H669H1060 10Hear the word of the Lord, O you nations, and declare it in the isles {and} coastlands far away, and say, He Who scattered Israel will gather him and will keep him as a shepherd keeps his flock.H8085H1697H3068H1471H5046H339H4801H559H2219H3478H6908H8104H7462H5739 11For the Lord has ransomed Jacob and has redeemed him from the hand of him who was too strong for him.H3068H6299H3290H1350H3027H2389 12They shall come and sing aloud on the height of Zion and shall flow together {and} be radiant with joy over the goodness of the Lord--for the corn, for the juice [of the grape], for the oil, and for the young of the flock and the herd. And their life shall be like a watered garden, and they shall not sorrow {or} languish any more at all.H935H7442H4791H6726H5102H2898H3068H1715H8492H3323H1121H6629H1241H5315H7302H1588H1669H3254 13Then will the maidens rejoice in the dance, and the young men and old together. For I will turn their mourning into joy and will comfort them and make them rejoice after their sorrow.H1330H8055H4234H970H2205H3162H2015H60H8342H5162H8055H3015 14I will satisfy fully the life of the priests with abundance [of offerings shared with them], and My people will be satisfied with My goodness, says the Lord.H7301H5315H3548H1880H5971H7646H2898H5002H3068 15Thus says the Lord: A voice is heard in Ramah, lamentation and bitter weeping. Rachel is weeping for her children; she refuses to be comforted for her children, because they are no more.H559H3068H6963H8085H7414H5092H8563H1065H7354H1058H1121H3985H5162H1121 16Thus says the Lord: Restrain your voice from weeping and your eyes from tears, for your work shall be rewarded, says the Lord; and [your children] shall return from the enemy's land.H559H3068H4513H6963H1065H5869H1832H6468H3426H7939H5002H3068H7725H776H341 17And there is hope for your future, says the Lord; your children shall come back to their own country.H3426H8615H319H5002H3068H1121H7725H1366 18I have surely heard Ephraim [Israel] moaning thus: You have chastised me, and I was chastised, like a bullock unaccustomed to the yoke; bring me back, that I may be restored, for You are the Lord my God.H8085H8085H669H5110H3256H3256H5695H3808H3925H7725H7725H3068H430 19Surely after I [Ephraim] was turned [from You], I repented; and after I was instructed, I penitently smote my thigh. I was ashamed, yes, even confounded, because I bore the disgrace of my youth [as a nation].H310H7725H5162H310H3045H5606H3409H954H3637H5375H2781H5271 20Is Ephraim My dear son? Is he a darling child {and} beloved? For as often as I speak against him, I do [earnestly] remember him still. Therefore My affection is stirred {and} My heart yearns for him; I will surely have mercy, pity, {and} loving-kindness for him, says the Lord.H669H3357H1121H8191H3206H1767H1696H2142H2142H4578H1993H7355H7355H5002H3068 21Set up for yourselves highway markers [back to Canaan], make for yourselves guideposts; turn your thoughts {and} attention to the way by which you went [into exile]. Retrace your steps, O Virgin Israel, return to these your cities.H5324H6725H7760H8564H7896H3820H4546H1870H1980H7725H1330H3478H7725H5892 22How long will you waver {and} hesitate [to return], O you backsliding daughter? For the Lord has created a new thing in the land [of Israel]: a female shall compass (woo, win, and protect) a man.H2559H7728H1323H3068H1254H2319H776H5347H5437H1397 23Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Once more they shall use these words in the land of Judah and in her cities when I release them from exile: The Lord bless you, O habitation of justice {and} righteousness, O holy mountain!H559H3068H6635H430H3478H559H1697H776H3063H5892H7725H7622H3068H1288H5116H6664H2022H6944 24And [the people of] Judah and all its cities shall dwell there together--[nomad] farmers and those who wander about with their flocks.H3427H3063H5892H3162H406H5265H5739 25For I will [fully] satisfy the weary soul, and I will replenish every languishing {and} sorrowful person.H7301H5889H5315H4390H1669H5315 26Thereupon I [Jeremiah] awoke and looked, and my [trancelike] sleep was sweet [in the assurance it gave] to me.H6974H7200H8142H6149 27Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed (offspring) of man and of beast.H3117H935H5002H3068H2232H1004H3478H1004H3063H2233H120H2233H929 28And it will be that as I have watched over them to pluck up and to break down, and to overthrow, destroy, and afflict [with evil], so will I watch over them to build and to plant [with good], says the Lord.H8245H5428H5422H2040H6H7489H8245H1129H5193H5002H3068 29In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on edge.H3117H559H1H398H1155H1121H8127H6949 30But everyone shall die for his own iniquity [only]; every man who eats sour grapes--his [own] teeth shall be set on edge.H376H4191H5771H120H398H1155H8127H6949 31Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah,H3117H935H5002H3068H3772H2319H1285H1004H3478H1004H3063 32Not according to the covenant which I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, although I was their Husband, says the Lord.H1285H3772H1H3117H2388H3027H3318H776H4714H1285H6565H1166H5002H3068 33But this is the covenant which I will make with the house of Israel: After those days, says the Lord, I will put My law within them, and on their hearts will I write it; and I will be their God, and they will be My people.H1285H3772H1004H3478H310H3117H5002H3068H5414H8451H7130H3789H3820H430H5971 34And they will no more teach each man his neighbor and each man his brother, saying, Know the Lord, for they will all know Me [recognize, understand, and be acquainted with Me], from the least of them to the greatest, says the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will [seriously] remember their sin no more.H3925H376H7453H376H251H559H3045H3068H3045H6996H1419H5002H3068H5545H5771H2142H2403 35Thus says the Lord, Who gives the sun for a light by day and the fixed order of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, Who stirs up the sea's roaring billows {or} stills the waves when they roar--the Lord of hosts is His name:H559H3068H5414H8121H216H3119H2708H3394H3556H216H3915H7280H3220H1530H1993H3068H6635H8034 36If these ordinances [of fixed order] depart from before Me, says the Lord, then the posterity of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before Me throughout the ages.H2706H4185H6440H5002H3068H2233H3478H7673H1471H6440H3117 37Thus says the Lord: If the heavens above can be measured and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, then I will cast off all the offspring of Israel for all that they have done, says the Lord.H559H3068H8064H4605H4058H4146H776H2713H4295H3988H2233H3478H6213H5002H3068 38Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord, when the city [of Jerusalem] shall be built [again] for the Lord from the Tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate.H3117H935H5002H3068H5892H1129H3068H4026H2606H8179H6438 39And the measuring line shall go out farther straight onward to the hill Gareb and shall then turn to Goah [exact location unknown].H4060H6957H6961H3318H1389H1619H5437H1601 40And the whole valley [Hinnom] of the dead bodies and [the hill] of the ashes [long dumped there from the temple sacrifices], and all the fields as far as the brook Kidron, to the corner of the Horse Gate toward the east, shall be holy to the Lord. It [the city] shall not be plucked up or overthrown any more to the end of the age.H6010H6297H1880H7709H8309H5158H6939H6438H5483H8179H4217H6944H3068H5428H2040H5769
