Jer.|30:1|-|The word which came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,
Jer.|30:2|-|Thus speaks Jehovah the God of Israel, saying, Write in a book all the words which I have spoken to you.
Jer.|30:3|-|Yes indeed, days are coming, declares Jehovah, when I will |a|turn the captivity of My people Israel and Judah, says Jehovah, and I will bring them back to the land which I gave to their fathers, and they will possess it.
Jer.|30:4|-|And these are the words which Jehovah spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah:
Jer.|30:5|-|For thus says Jehovah,We have heard a voice of trembling,
Of fear and not of peace.
Jer.|30:6|-|Ask now and seeWhether a man can give birth.
Why do I see every manWith his hands on his loins like a |a|woman about to give birth
And every face turned pale?
Jer.|30:7|-|Alas! For that |a|day is great,And there is none like it;
And it is a time of |1|distress for Jacob,But he will be saved out of it.
Jer.|30:8|-|And on that day, declares Jehovah of hosts, I will break his yoke from your neck and tear off your bonds, and strangers will no longer make him serve them.
Jer.|30:9|-|But they will serve Jehovah their God and |1a|David their King, whom I will raise up for them.
Jer.|30:10|-||a|Therefore do not fear, O Jacob My servant, declares Jehovah,And do not be dismayed, O Israel;
For indeed, I will save you from afar,And your seed from the land of their captivity;
And Jacob will return and be undisturbed and at ease,And no one will frighten him.
Jer.|30:11|-|For I am with you, declares Jehovah, to save you;For I will make a full end of all the nations to which I have scattered you;
But I will not make a |a|full end of you,But will |b|correct you in measure
And will by no means leave you unpunished.
Jer.|30:12|-|For thus says Jehovah,Your hurt is |a|incurable;
Your wound is grievous.
Jer.|30:13|-|There is none to judge your judgment, to bind your wound;There are no healing medicines for you.
Jer.|30:14|-|All your lovers have forgotten you;They do not search for you;
For I have struck you with the striking of an enemy,With the chastisement of one who is cruel,
Because of the greatness of your iniquity;Your sins are numerous.
Jer.|30:15|-|Why do you cry out over your hurt?Your pain is incurable.
Because of the greatness of your iniquity,Because your sins are numerous,
I have done these things to you.
Jer.|30:16|-|Therefore all those who consume you will be consumed,And all those who distress you, every one of them, will go into captivity;
And those who plunder you will become plunder,And all those who prey on you I will make a prey.
Jer.|30:17|-|For I will bring you |a|recoveryAnd will heal you of your wounds, declares Jehovah;
Because they have called you an outcast, saying,She is Zion, whom no one searches after.
Jer.|30:18|-|Thus says Jehovah,I will |a|turn the captivity of the tents of Jacob
And have |b|compassion on his dwelling places;And the city will be rebuilt on its mound,
And the palace will be inhabited after its own manner.
Jer.|30:19|-|And out from them will come thanksgivingAnd the voice of those who make merry.
And I will multiply them, so that they will not be few;And I will cause them to be honored, so that they will not be small.
Jer.|30:20|-|And |1|their children will be as they were of old,And |1|their assembly will be established before Me;
And I will punish all those who oppress |2|them,
Jer.|30:21|-|And their leader will be one of them.And their |a|ruler will come out from their midst,
And I will bring him |b|near, and he will approach Me.For who else would be bold enough
To approach Me? declares Jehovah.
Jer.|30:22|-|And you will be My people,And |a|I will be your God.
Jer.|30:23|-|Look, the storm wind of Jehovah!Wrath has gone forth,
A whirling tempest;It will whirl down on the head of the wicked.
Jer.|30:24|-|The burning anger of Jehovah will not turn back,Until He has executed and until He has accomplished
The purposes of His heart;In the last days
You will understand it.
