Jeremiah 30
30
1The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying, 2“Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, ‘Write all the words that I have spoken to you in a book. 3For, behold, the days come,’ says Yahweh, ‘that I will reverse the captivity of my people Israel and Judah,’ says Yahweh. ‘I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they will possess it.’”
4These are the words that Yahweh spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah. 5For Yahweh says:
“We have heard a voice of trembling;
a voice of fear, and not of peace.
6Ask now, and see whether a man travails with child.
Why do I see every man with his hands on his waist, as a woman in travail,
and all faces are turned pale?
7Alas, for that day is great, so that none is like it!
It is even the time of Jacob’s trouble;
but he will be saved out of it.
8It will come to pass in that day, says Yahweh of Armies, that I will break his yoke from off your neck,
and will burst your bonds.
Strangers will no more make them their bondservants;
9but they will serve Yahweh their God,
and David their king,
whom I will raise up to them.
10Therefore don’t be afraid, O Jacob my servant, says Yahweh.
Don’t be dismayed, Israel.
For, behold, I will save you from afar,
and save your offspring from the land of their captivity.
Jacob will return,
and will be quiet and at ease.
No one will make him afraid.
11For I am with you, says Yahweh, to save you;
for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have scattered you,
but I will not make a full end of you;
but I will correct you in measure,
and will in no way leave you unpunished.”
12For Yahweh says,
“Your hurt is incurable.
Your wound is grievous.
13There is no one to plead your cause,
that you may be bound up.
You have no healing medicines.
14All your lovers have forgotten you.
They don’t seek you.
For I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy,
with the chastisement of a cruel one,
for the greatness of your iniquity,
because your sins were increased.
15Why do you cry over your injury?
Your pain is incurable.
For the greatness of your iniquity,
because your sins have increased,
I have done these things to you.
16Therefore all those who devour you will be devoured.
All your adversaries, everyone of them, will go into captivity.
Those who plunder you will be plunder.
I will make all who prey on you become prey.
17For I will restore health to you,
and I will heal you of your wounds,” says Yahweh,
“because they have called you an outcast,
saying, ‘It is Zion, whom no man seeks after.’”
18Yahweh says:
“Behold, I will reverse the captivity of Jacob’s tents,
and have compassion on his dwelling places.
The city will be built on its own hill,
and the palace will be inhabited in its own place.
19Thanksgiving will proceed out of them
with the voice of those who make merry.
I will multiply them,
and they will not be few;
I will also glorify them,
and they will not be small.
20Their children also will be as before,
and their congregation will be established before me.
I will punish all who oppress them.
21Their prince will be one of them,
and their ruler will proceed from among them.
I will cause him to draw near,
and he will approach me;
for who is he who has had boldness to approach me?” says Yahweh.
22“You shall be my people,
and I will be your God.
23Behold, Yahweh’s storm, his wrath, has gone out,
a sweeping storm;
it will burst on the head of the wicked.
24The fierce anger of Yahweh will not return until he has accomplished,
and until he has performed the intentions of his heart.
In the latter days you will understand it.”

Israel and Judah Restored
1The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying: 2#Isa 30:8; Jer 36:32Thus says the Lord God of Israel: Write all the words that I have spoken to you in a book. 3#Jer 16:15; 29:14For surely the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will restore the fortunes of My people Israel and Judah. The Lord says, I also will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.
4These are the words that the Lord spoke concerning Israel and Judah. 5#Isa 5:30; Am 5:16–18For thus says the Lord:
I have heard a sound of trembling,
of fear, and not of peace.
6#Jer 4:31; 6:24 Ask now, and see,
can a male labor with child?
Why do I see every man
with his hands on his loins, as a woman in labor,
and all faces turned pale?
7#Joel 2:11; Jer 30:10 Alas! for that day is great,
so that no one is like it;
it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble,
but he shall be saved out of it.
8#Eze 34:27; Isa 9:4; Jer 27:2 For it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord of Hosts,
that I shall break his yoke from off their neck
and tear away their bonds,
and strangers shall no longer make them their slaves.
9#Hos 3:5; Lk 1:69; Isa 55:3–5 But they shall serve the Lord their God
and David their king,
whom I will raise up for them.
10#Isa 43:5; Jer 46:27–28 Therefore do not fear, O My servant Jacob,
says the Lord,
nor be dismayed, O Israel;
for I will save you from afar,
and your seed from the land of their captivity.
And Jacob shall return and shall be in rest and be quiet,
and no one shall make him afraid.
11#Jer 10:24; 4:27 For I am with you, says the Lord,
to save you.
Although I make a full end of all nations
wherever I have scattered you,
yet I will not make a full end of you.
But I will correct you in measure
and will not leave you altogether unpunished.
12#Jer 15:18; 2Ch 36:16For thus says the Lord:
Your bruise is incurable
and your wound is severe.
13#Jer 8:22; 46:11 There is no one to plead your cause
that you may be bound up.
You have no healing medicines.
14#Job 30:21; Jer 5:6 All your lovers have forgotten you;
they do not seek you;
for I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy,
with the chastisement of a cruel one,
because of the multitude of your iniquities, because your sins are numerous.
15#Jer 30:12; 30:14 Why do you cry because of your affliction?
Your sorrow is incurable.
Because of the multitude of your iniquities, because your sins are numerous,
I have done these things to you.
16#Jer 10:25; Isa 14:2 Therefore all who devour you will be devoured;
and all your adversaries, every one of them, will go into captivity.
And those who plunder you will become plunder,
and all who prey upon you I will give for prey.
17#Ex 15:26; Ps 107:20 For I will restore health to you,
and I will heal you of your wounds,
says the Lord,
because they called you an outcast, saying,
“This is Zion whom no man cares for.”
18#Jer 30:3; Ps 102:13Thus says the Lord:
I will restore the fortunes of Jacob’s tents
and have mercy on his dwelling places;
and the city will be built upon her own heap,
and the palace will remain on its rightful place.
19#Isa 35:10; 51:11 Out of them will proceed thanksgiving
and the voice of those who make merry;
and I will multiply them,
and they will not be few.
I will also glorify them,
and they will not be small.
20Their children also will be as before,
and their congregation will be established before Me;
and I will punish all who oppress them.
21#Nu 16:5; Ge 49:10 Their leader shall be one of them,
and their ruler shall proceed from their midst;
and I will cause him to draw near and he will approach Me;
for who is this that dares
to approach Me?
says the Lord.
22#Jer 24:7; 31:1 You shall be My people,
and I will be your God.
23#Jer 23:19–20; 25:32 Look, the whirlwind of the Lord
goes forth with fury,
a continuing whirlwind;
it will fall with pain upon the head of the wicked.
24#Jer 23:20; 4:28 The fierce anger of the Lord shall not return
until He has done it
and until He has performed the intentions of His heart.
In the latter days
you will understand it.
