Jeremiah 31:2-22

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
The people
<05971>
[which were] left
<08300>
of the sword
<02719>
found
<04672> (8804)
grace
<02580>
in the wilderness
<04057>_;
[even] Israel
<03478>_,
when I went
<01980> (8800)
to cause him to rest
<07280> (8687)_.
The LORD
<03068>
hath appeared
<07200> (8738)
of old
<07350>
unto me, [saying], Yea, I have loved
<0157> (8804)
thee with an everlasting
<05769>
love
<0160>_:
therefore with lovingkindness
<02617>
have I drawn
<04900> (8804)
thee. {of...: Heb. from afar} {with lovingkindness...: have I extended lovingkindness unto thee}
Again I will build
<01129> (8799)
thee, and thou shalt be built
<01129> (8738)_,
O virgin
<01330>
of Israel
<03478>_:
thou shalt again be adorned
<05710> (8799)
with thy tabrets
<08596>_,
and shalt go forth
<03318> (8804)
in the dances
<04234>
of them that make merry
<07832> (8764)_.
{tabrets: or, timbrels}
Thou shalt yet plant
<05193> (8799)
vines
<03754>
upon the mountains
<02022>
of Samaria
<08111>_:
the planters
<05193> (8802)
shall plant
<05193> (8804)_,
and shall eat [them] as common things
<02490> (8765)_.
{eat...: Heb. profane them}
For there shall be
<03426>
a day
<03117>_,
[that] the watchmen
<05341> (8802)
upon the mount
<02022>
Ephraim
<0669>
shall cry
<07121> (8804)_,
Arise
<06965> (8798)
ye, and let us go up
<05927> (8799)
to Zion
<06726>
unto the LORD
<03068>
our God
<0430>_.
For thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Sing
<07442> (8798)
with gladness
<08057>
for Jacob
<03290>_,
and shout
<06670> (8761)
among the chief
<07218>
of the nations
<01471>_:
publish
<08085> (8685)
ye, praise
<01984> (8761)
ye, and say
<0559> (8798)_,
O LORD
<03068>_,
save
<03467> (8685)
thy people
<05971>_,
the remnant
<07611>
of Israel
<03478>_.
Behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)
them from the north
<06828>
country
<0776>_,
and gather
<06908> (8765)
them from the coasts
<03411>
of the earth
<0776>_,
[and] with them the blind
<05787>
and the lame
<06455>_,
the woman with child
<02030>
and her that travaileth with child
<03205> (8802)
together
<03162>_:
a great
<01419>
company
<06951>
shall return
<07725> (8799)
thither.
They shall come
<0935> (8799)
with weeping
<01065>_,
and with supplications
<08469>
will I lead
<02986> (8686)
them: I will cause them to walk
<03212> (8686)
by the rivers
<05158>
of waters
<04325>
in a straight
<03477>
way
<01870>_,
wherein they shall not stumble
<03782> (8735)_:
for I am a father
<01>
to Israel
<03478>_,
and Ephraim
<0669>
[is] my firstborn
<01060>_.
{supplications: or, favours}
Hear
<08085> (8798)
the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
O ye nations
<01471>_,
and declare
<05046> (8685)
[it] in the isles
<0339>
afar off
<04801>_,
and say
<0559> (8798)_,
He that scattered
<02219> (8764)
Israel
<03478>
will gather
<06908> (8762)
him, and keep
<08104> (8804)
him, as a shepherd
<07462> (8802)
[doth] his flock
<05739>_.
For the LORD
<03068>
hath redeemed
<06299> (8804)
Jacob
<03290>_,
and ransomed
<01350> (8804)
him from the hand
<03027>
of [him that was] stronger
<02389>
than he.
Therefore they shall come
<0935> (8804)
and sing
<07442> (8765)
in the height
<04791>
of Zion
<06726>_,
and shall flow together
<05102> (8804)
to the goodness
<02898>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
for wheat
<01715>_,
and for wine
<08492>_,
and for oil
<03323>_,
and for the young
<01121>
of the flock
<06629>
and of the herd
<01241>_:
and their soul
<05315>
shall be as a watered
<07302>
garden
<01588>_;
and they shall not sorrow
<01669> (8800)
any more
<03254> (8686)
at all.
Then shall the virgin
<01330>
rejoice
<08055> (8799)
in the dance
<04234>_,
both young men
<0970>
and old
<02205>
together
<03162>_:
for I will turn
<02015> (8804)
their mourning
<060>
into joy
<08342>_,
and will comfort
<05162> (8765)
them, and make them rejoice
<08055> (8765)
from their sorrow
<03015>_.
And I will satiate
<07301> (8765)
the soul
<05315>
of the priests
<03548>
with fatness
<01880>_,
and my people
<05971>
shall be satisfied
<07646> (8799)
with my goodness
<02898>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
A voice
<06963>
was heard
<08085> (8738)
in Ramah
<07414>_,
lamentation
<05092>_,
[and] bitter
<08563>
weeping
<01065>_;
Rahel
<07354>
weeping
<01058> (8764)
for her children
<01121>
refused
<03985> (8765)
to be comforted
<05162> (8736)
for her children
<01121>_,
because they [were] not.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
Refrain
<04513> (8798)
thy voice
<06963>
from weeping
<01065>_,
and thine eyes
<05869>
from tears
<01832>_:
for thy work
<06468>
shall be
<03426>
rewarded
<07939>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_;
and they shall come again
<07725> (8804)
from the land
<0776>
of the enemy
<0341> (8802)_.
And there is
<03426>
hope
<08615>
in thine end
<0319>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
that thy children
<01121>
shall come again
<07725> (8804)
to their own border
<01366>_.
I have surely
<08085> (8800)
heard
<08085> (8804)
Ephraim
<0669>
bemoaning
<05110> (8711)
himself [thus]; Thou hast chastised
<03256> (8765)
me, and I was chastised
<03256> (8735)_,
as a bullock
<05695>
unaccustomed
<03808> <03925> (8795)
[to the yoke]: turn
<07725> (8685)
thou me, and I shall be turned
<07725> (8799)_;
for thou [art] the LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>_.
Surely after
<0310>
that I was turned
<07725> (8800)_,
I repented
<05162> (8738)_;
and after
<0310>
that I was instructed
<03045> (8736)_,
I smote
<05606> (8804)
upon [my] thigh
<03409>_:
I was ashamed
<0954> (8804)_,
yea, even confounded
<03637> (8738)_,
because I did bear
<05375> (8804)
the reproach
<02781>
of my youth
<05271>_.
[Is] Ephraim
<0669>
my dear
<03357>
son
<01121>_?
[is he] a pleasant
<08191>
child
<03206>_?
for since
<01767>
I spake
<01696> (8763)
against him, I do earnestly
<02142> (8800)
remember
<02142> (8799)
him still: therefore my bowels
<04578>
are troubled
<01993> (8804)
for him; I will surely
<07355> (8763)
have mercy
<07355> (8762)
upon him, saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
{are...: Heb. sound}
Set thee up
<05324> (8685)
waymarks
<06725>_,
make
<07760> (8798)
thee high heaps
<08564>_:
set
<07896> (8798)
thine heart
<03820>
toward the highway
<04546>_,
[even] the way
<01870>
[which] thou wentest
<01980> (8804)_:
turn again
<07725> (8798)_,
O virgin
<01330>
of Israel
<03478>_,
turn again
<07725> (8798)
to these thy cities
<05892>_.
How long wilt thou go about
<02559> (8691)_,
O thou backsliding
<07728>
daughter
<01323>_?
for the LORD
<03068>
hath created
<01254> (8804)
a new thing
<02319>
in the earth
<0776>_,
A woman
<05347>
shall compass
<05437> (8779)
a man
<01397>_.
