(Jer 30:1) The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
(Jer 30:2) Thus speaketh the Lord God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book.
(Jer 30:3) 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.
(Jer 30:4) And these {are} the words that the Lord spake concerning Israel and concerning Judah.
(Jer 30:5) For thus saith the Lord; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.
(Jer 30:6) 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?
(Jer 30:7) 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.
(Jer 30:8) 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:
(Jer 30:9) But they shall serve the Lord their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them.
(Jer 30:10) 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.
(Jer 30:11) 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 will I not make a full end of thee: but I will correct thee in measure, and will not leave thee altogether unpunished.
(Jer 30:12) For thus saith the Lord, Thy bruise {is} incurable, {and} thy wound {is} grievous.
(Jer 30:13) {There is} none to plead thy cause, that thou mayest be bound up: thou hast no healing medicines.
(Jer 30:14) 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.
(Jer 30:15) 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.
(Jer 30:16) 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.
(Jer 30:17) 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.
(Jer 30:18) 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.
(Jer 30:19) 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.
(Jer 30:20) Their children also shall be as aforetime, and their congregation shall be established before me, and I will punish all that oppress them.
(Jer 30:21) 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.
(Jer 30:22) And ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.
(Jer 30:23) Behold, the whirlwind of the Lord goeth forth with fury, a continuing whirlwind: it shall fall with pain upon the head of the wicked.
(Jer 30:24) The fierce anger of the Lord shall not return, until he have done {it}, and until he have performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it.
