Book 24 : JEREMIAH - Chapter 030
030:001
Thus speaketh the LORD God of Israel, saying, Write thee all
the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book
030:002
For, lo, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will bring
again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith the
LORD: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave
to their fathers, and they shall possess it
030:003
And these are the words that the LORD spake concerning Israel
and concerning Judah
030:004
For thus saith the LORD; We have heard a voice of trembling,
of fear, and not of peace
030:005
Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child?
wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a
woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness
030:006
Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is
even the time of Jacob's trouble, but he shall be saved out of
it
030:007
For it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of
hosts, that I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and will
burst thy bonds, and strangers shall no more serve themselves
of him
030:008
But they shall serve the LORD their God, and David their king,
whom I will raise up unto them
030:009
Therefore fear thou not, O my servant Jacob, saith the LORD;
neither be dismayed, O Israel: for, lo, I will save thee from
afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob
shall return, and shall be in rest, and be quiet, and none
shall make him afraid
030:010
For I am with thee, saith the LORD, to save thee: though I
make a full end of all nations whither I have scattered thee,
yet I will not make a full end of thee: but I will correct
thee in measure, and will not leave thee altogether
unpunished
030:011
For thus saith the LORD, Thy bruise is incurable, and thy
wound is grievous
030:012
There is none to plead thy cause, that thou mayest be bound
up: thou hast no healing medicines
030:013
All thy lovers have forgotten thee; they seek thee not; for I
have wounded thee with the wound of an enemy, with the
chastisement of a cruel one, for the multitude of thine
iniquity; because thy sins were increased
030:014
Why criest thou for thine affliction? thy sorrow is incurable
for the multitude of thine iniquity: because thy sins were
increased, I have done these things unto thee
030:015
Therefore all they that devour thee shall be devoured; and all
thine adversaries, every one of them, shall go into captivity;
and they that spoil thee shall be a spoil, and all that prey
upon thee will I give for a prey
030:016
For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of
thy wounds, saith the LORD; because they called thee an
Outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeketh after
030:017
Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will bring again the captivity
of Jacob's tents, and have mercy on his dwellingplaces; and
the city shall be builded upon her own heap, and the palace
shall remain after the manner thereof
030:018
And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of
them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall
not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be
small
030:019
Their children also shall be as aforetime, and their
congregation shall be established before me, and I will punish
all that oppress them
030:020
And their nobles shall be of themselves, and their governor
shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to
draw near, and he shall approach unto me: for who is this that
engaged his heart to approach unto me? saith the LORD
030:021
And ye shall be my people, and I will be your God
030:022
Behold, the whirlwind of the LORD goeth forth with fury, a
continuing whirlwind: it shall fall with pain upon the head of
the wicked
030:023
The fierce anger of the LORD shall not return, until he hath
done it, and until he have performed the intents of his heart:
in the latter days ye shall consider it
