The word{H1697} that came to Jeremiah{H3414} from Jehovah,{H3068} saying,{H559}

Thus speaketh{H559} Jehovah,{H3068} the God{H430} of Israel,{H3478} saying,{H559} Write{H3789} thee all the words{H1697} that I have spoken{H1696} unto thee in a book.{H5612}

For, lo, the days{H3117} come,{H935} saith{H5002} Jehovah,{H3068} that I will turn again{H7725} the captivity{H7622} of my people{H5971} Israel{H3478} and Judah,{H3063} saith{H559} Jehovah;{H3068} and I will cause them to return{H7725} to the land{H776} that I gave{H5414} to their fathers,{H1} and they shall possess{H3423} it.

And these are the words{H1697} that Jehovah{H3068} spake{H1696} concerning Israel{H3478} and concerning Judah.{H3063}

For thus saith{H559} Jehovah:{H3068} We have heard{H8085} a voice{H6963} of trembling,{H2731} of fear,{H6343} and not of peace.{H7965}

Ask{H7592} ye now, and see{H7200} whether a man{H2145} doth travail with child:{H3205} wherefore do I see{H7200} every man{H1397} with his hands{H3027} on his loins,{H2504} as a woman in travail,{H3205} and all faces{H6440} are turned{H2015} into paleness?{H3420}

Alas!{H1945} for that day{H3117} is great,{H1419} so that{H369} none is like it: it is even the time{H6256} of Jacob's{H3290} trouble;{H6869} but he shall be saved{H3467} out of it.

And it shall come to pass in that day,{H3117} saith{H5002} Jehovah{H3068} of hosts,{H6635} that I will break{H7665} his yoke{H5923} from off thy neck,{H6677} and will burst{H5423} thy bonds;{H4147} and strangers{H2114} shall no more make him their bondman;{H5647}

but they shall serve{H5647} Jehovah{H3068} their God,{H430} and David{H1732} their king,{H4428} whom I will raise up{H6965} unto them.

Therefore fear{H3372} thou not, O Jacob{H3290} my servant,{H5650} saith{H5002} Jehovah;{H3068} neither be dismayed,{H2865} O Israel:{H3478} for, lo, I will save{H3467} thee from afar,{H7350} and thy seed{H2233} from the land{H776} of their captivity;{H7628} and Jacob{H3290} shall return,{H7725} and shall be quiet{H8252} and at ease,{H7599} and none shall make him afraid.{H2729}

For I am with thee, saith{H5002} Jehovah,{H3068} to save{H3467} thee: for I will make{H6213} a full end{H3617} of all the nations{H1471} whither I have scattered{H6327} thee, but I will not make{H6213} a full end{H3617} of thee; but I will correct{H3256} thee in measure,{H4941} and will in no wise leave{H5352} thee unpunished.{H5352}

For thus saith{H559} Jehovah,{H3068} Thy hurt{H7667} is incurable,{H605} and thy wound{H4347} grievous.{H2470}

There is none to plead{H1777} thy cause,{H1779} that thou mayest be bound up:{H4205} thou hast no healing{H8585} medicines.{H7499}

All thy lovers{H157} have forgotten{H7911} thee; they seek{H1875} thee not: for I have wounded{H5221} thee with the wound{H4347} of an enemy,{H341} with the chastisement{H4148} of a cruel one,{H394} for the greatness{H7230} of thine iniquity,{H5771} because thy sins{H2403} were increased.{H6105}

Why criest{H2199} thou for thy hurt?{H7667} thy pain{H4341} is incurable:{H605} for the greatness{H7230} of thine iniquity,{H5771} because thy sins{H2403} were increased,{H6105} I have done{H6213} these things unto thee.

Therefore all they that devour{H398} thee shall be devoured;{H398} and all thine adversaries,{H6862} every one of them, shall go{H3212} into captivity;{H7628} and they that despoil{H7601} thee shall be a spoil,{H4933} and all that prey{H962} upon thee will I give{H5414} for a prey.{H957}

For I will restore{H5927} health{H724} unto thee, and I will heal{H7495} thee of thy wounds,{H4347} saith{H5002} Jehovah;{H3068} because they have called{H7121} thee an outcast,{H5080} [saying], It is Zion,{H6726} whom no man seeketh after.{H1875}

Thus saith{H559} Jehovah:{H3068} Behold, I will turn again{H7725} the captivity{H7622} of Jacob's{H3290} tents,{H168} and have compassion{H7355} on his dwelling-places;{H4908} and the city{H5892} shall be builded{H1129} upon its own hill,{H8510} and the palace{H759} shall be inhabited{H3427} after its own manner.{H4941}

And out of them shall proceed{H3318} thanksgiving{H8426} and the voice{H6963} of them that make merry:{H7832} and I will multiply{H7235} them, and they shall not be few;{H4591} I will also glorify{H3513} them, and they shall not be small.{H6819}

Their children{H1121} also shall be as aforetime,{H6924} and their congregation{H5712} shall be established{H3559} before{H6440} me; and I will punish{H6485} all that oppress{H3905} them.

And their prince{H117} shall be of themselves, and their ruler{H4910} shall proceed{H3318} from the midst{H7130} of them; and I will cause him to draw near,{H7126} and he shall approach{H5066} unto me: for who is he that hath had{H6148} boldness{H3820} to approach{H5066} unto me? saith{H5002} Jehovah.{H3068}

And ye shall be my people,{H5971} and I will be your God.{H430}

Behold, the tempest{H5591} of Jehovah,{H3068} [even his] wrath,{H2534} is gone forth,{H3318} a sweeping{H1641} tempest:{H5591} it shall burst{H2342} upon the head{H7218} of the wicked.{H7563}

The fierce{H2740} anger{H639} of Jehovah{H3068} shall not return,{H7725} until he have executed,{H6213} and till he have performed{H6965} the intents{H4209} of his heart:{H3820} in the latter{H319} days{H3117} ye shall understand{H995} it.
