At the sameH1931 time,H6256 saidH5002 the LORD,H3068 will I be the GodH430 of allH3605 the familiesH4940 of Israel,H3478 and they shall be my people.H5971
2
ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORD,H3068 The peopleH5971 which were leftH8300 of the swordH2719 foundH4672 graceH2580 in the wilderness;H4057 even Israel,H3478 when I wentH1980 to cause him to rest.H7280
3
The LORDH3068 has appearedH7200 of oldH7350 to me, saying, Yes, I have lovedH157 you with an everlastingH5769 love:H160 thereforeH5921 H3651 with loving kindnessH2617 have I drawnH4900 you.
4
AgainH5750 I will buildH1129 you, and you shall be built,H1129 O virginH1330 of Israel:H3478 you shall againH5750 be adornedH5710 with your tabrets,H8596 and shall goH3318 forthH3318 in the dances of them that make merry.H7832
5
You shall yetH5750 plantH5193 vinesH3754 on the mountainsH2022 of Samaria:H8111 the plantersH5193 shall plant,H5193 and shall eat them as commonH2490 things.
6
For there shall be a day,H3117 that the watchmenH5341 on the mountH2022 EphraimH669 shall cry,H7121 Arise you, and let us goH5927 up to ZionH6726 to the LORDH3068 our God.H430
7
For thusH3541 saidH559 the LORD;H3068 SingH7442 with gladnessH8057 for Jacob,H3290 and shoutH6670 among the chiefH7218 of the nations:H1471 publishH8085 you, praiseH1984 you, and say,H559 O LORD,H3068 saveH3467 your people,H5971 the remnantH7611 of Israel.H3478
8
Behold,H2005 I will bringH935 them from the northH6828 country,H776 and gatherH6908 them from the coastsH3411 of the earth,H776 and with them the blindH5787 and the lame,H6455 the woman with childH2030 and her that travailsH3205 with childH3205 together:H3162 a greatH1419 companyH6951 shall returnH7725 thither.H2008
9
They shall comeH935 with weeping,H1065 and with supplicationsH8469 will I leadH2986 them: I will cause them to walkH1980 by the riversH5158 of watersH4325 in a straightH3474 way,H1870 wherein they shall not stumble:H3782 for I am a fatherH1 to Israel,H3478 and EphraimH669 is my firstborn.H1060
10
HearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORD,H3068 O you nations,H1471 and declareH5046 it in the islesH339 afarH4801 off, and say,H559 He that scatteredH2219 IsraelH3478 will gatherH6908 him, and keepH8104 him, as a shepherdH7462 does his flock.H5739
11
For the LORDH3068 has redeemedH6299 Jacob,H3290 and ransomedH1350 him from the handH3027 of him that was strongerH2388 than he.
12
Therefore they shall comeH935 and singH7442 in the heightH4791 of Zion,H6726 and shall flowH5102 togetherH3162 to the goodnessH2898 of the LORD,H3068 for wheat,H1715 and for wine,H8492 and for oil,H3323 and for the youngH1121 of the flockH6629 and of the herd:H1241 and their soulH5315 shall be as a wateredH7302 garden;H1588 and they shall not sorrowH1669 any moreH3254 at all.
13
Then shall the virginH1330 rejoiceH8057 in the dance,H4234 both youngH970 men and oldH2205 together:H3162 for I will turnH2015 their mourningH60 into joy,H8342 and will comfortH5162 them, and make them rejoiceH8057 from their sorrow.H3015
14
And I will satiateH7301 the soulH5315 of the priestsH3548 with fatness,H1880 and my peopleH5971 shall be satisfiedH7646 with my goodness,H2898 saidH5002 the LORD.H3068
15
ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORD;H3068 A voiceH6963 was heardH8085 in Ramah,H7414 lamentation,H5092 and bitterH8563 weeping;H1065 RahelH7354 weepingH1058 for her childrenH1121 refusedH3985 to be comfortedH5162 for her children,H1121 becauseH3588 they were not.
16
ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORD;H3068 RefrainH4513 your voiceH6963 from weeping,H1065 and your eyesH5869 from tears:H1832 for your workH6468 shall be rewarded,H7939 saidH5002 the LORD;H3068 and they shall comeH7725 againH7725 from the landH776 of the enemy.H341
17
And there is hopeH8615 in your end,H319 saidH5002 the LORD,H3068 that your childrenH1121 shall comeH7725 againH7725 to their own border.H1366
18
I have surely heardH8085 EphraimH669 bemoaningH5110 himself thus; You have chastisedH3256 me, and I was chastised,H3256 as a bullockH5695 unaccustomedH3808 H3925 to the yoke: turnH7725 you me, and I shall be turned;H7725 for you are the LORDH3068 my God.H430
19
SurelyH3588 afterH310 that I was turned,H7725 I repented;H5162 and afterH310 that I was instructed,H3045 I smoteH5606 on my thigh:H3409 I was ashamed,H954 yes,H1571 evenH1571 confounded,H3637 becauseH3588 I did bearH5375 the reproachH2781 of my youth.H5271
20
Is EphraimH669 my dearH3357 son?H1121 is he a pleasantH8191 child?H3206 for sinceH1767 I spokeH1696 against him, I do earnestly rememberH2142 him still:H5750 thereforeH5921 H3651 my bowelsH4578 are troubledH1993 for him; I will surely have mercyH7355 on him, saidH5002 the LORD.H3068
21
SetH5324 you up markers,H6725 makeH7760 you highH8564 heaps:H8564 setH7896 your heartH3820 toward the highway,H4546 even the wayH1870 which you went:H1980 turnH7725 again,H7725 O virginH1330 of Israel,H3478 turnH7725 againH7725 to theseH428 your cities.H5892
22
HowH5704 longH5704 will you goH2559 about,H2559 O you backslidingH7728 daughter?H1323 for the LORDH3068 has createdH1254 a newH2319 thing in the earth,H776 A womanH5347 shall compassH5437 a man.H1397
23
ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORDH3068 of hosts,H6635 the GodH430 of Israel;H3478 As yetH5750 they shall useH559 thisH1931 H2088 speechH1697 in the landH776 of JudahH3063 and in the citiesH5892 thereof, when I shall bringH7725 againH7725 their captivity;H7622 The LORDH3068 blessH1288 you, O habitationH5116 of justice,H6664 and mountainH2022 of holiness.H6944
24
And there shall dwellH3427 in JudahH3063 itself, and in allH3605 the citiesH5892 thereof together,H3162 farmers,H406 and they that goH5265 forthH5265 with flocks.H5739
25
For I have satiatedH7301 the wearyH5889 soul,H5315 and I have replenishedH4390 everyH3605 sorrowfulH1669 soul.H5315
26
On thisH2063 I awaked,H6974 and beheld;H7200 and my sleepH8142 was sweetH6149 to me.
27
Behold,H2009 the daysH3117 come,H935 saidH5002 the LORD,H3068 that I will sowH2232 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 with the seedH2233 of man,H120 and with the seedH2233 of beast.H929
28
And it shall comeH1961 to pass, that like as I have watchedH8245 overH5921 them, to pluckH5428 up, and to breakH5422 down,H5422 and to throwH2040 down,H2040 and to destroy,H6 and to afflict;H7489 soH3651 will I watchH8245 overH5921 them, to build,H1129 and to plant,H5193 saidH5002 the LORD.H3068
29
In thoseH1992 daysH3117 they shall sayH559 noH3808 more,H5750 The fathersH1 have eatenH398 a sourH1155 grape,H1155 and the children'sH1121 teethH8127 are set on edge.H6949
30
But every oneH376 shall dieH4191 for his own iniquity:H5771 everyH376 manH120 that eatsH398 the sourH1155 grape,H1155 his teethH8127 shall be set on edge.H6949
31
Behold,H2009 the daysH3117 come,H935 saidH5002 the LORD,H3068 that I will makeH3772 a newH2319 covenantH1285 with the houseH1004 of Israel,H3478 and with the houseH1004 of Judah:H3063
32
Not according to the covenantH1285 that I madeH3772 with their fathersH1 in the dayH3117 that I tookH2388 them by the handH3027 to bringH3318 them out of the landH776 of Egypt;H4714 whichH834 my covenantH1285 they broke,H6565 although I was an husbandH1167 to them, saidH5002 the LORD:H3068
33
But thisH2063 shall be the covenantH1285 that I will makeH3772 with the houseH1004 of Israel;H3478 AfterH310 thoseH1992 days,H3117 saidH5002 the LORD,H3068 I will putH5414 my lawH8451 in their inwardH7130 parts, and writeH3789 it in their hearts;H3820 and will be their God,H430 and they shall be my people.H5971
34
And they shall teachH3925 noH3808 moreH5750 every manH376 his neighbor,H7453 and every manH376 his brother,H251 saying,H559 Know the LORD:H3068 for they shall allH3605 knowH3045 me, from the leastH6996 of them to the greatestH1419 of them, saidH5002 the LORD:H3068 for I will forgiveH5545 their iniquity,H5771 and I will rememberH2142 their sinH2403 noH3808 more.H5750
35
ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORD,H3068 which givesH5414 the sunH8121 for a lightH216 by day,H3119 and the ordinancesH2708 of the moonH3394 and of the starsH3556 for a lightH216 by night,H3915 which dividesH7280 the seaH3220 when the wavesH1530 thereof roar;H1993 The LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 is his name:H8034
36
IfH518 thoseH428 ordinancesH2706 departH4185 from beforeH6440 me, saidH5002 the LORD,H3068 then the seedH2233 of IsraelH3478 alsoH1571 shall ceaseH7673 from beingH1961 a nationH1471 beforeH6440 me for ever.H3605 H3117
37
ThusH3541 saidH559 the LORD;H3068 IfH518 heavenH8064 aboveH4605 can be measured,H4058 and the foundationsH4146 of the earthH776 searchedH2713 out beneath,H4295 I will alsoH1571 castH3988 off allH3605 the seedH2233 of IsraelH3478 for allH3605 that they have done,H6213 saidH5002 the LORD.H3068
38
Behold,H2009 the daysH3117 come,H935 saidH5002 the LORD,H3068 that the cityH5892 shall be builtH1129 to the LORDH3068 from the towerH4026 of HananeelH2606 to the gateH8179 of the corner.H6438
39
And the measuringH4060 lineH6957 shall yetH5750 goH3318 forthH3318 overH5048 againstH5048 it on the hillH1389 Gareb,H1619 and shall compassH5437 about to Goath.H1601
40
And the wholeH3605 valleyH6010 of the deadH6297 bodies,H6297 and of the ashes,H1880 and allH3605 the fieldsH8309 to the brookH5158 of Kidron,H6939 to the cornerH6438 of the horseH5483 gateH8179 toward the east,H4217 shall be holyH6944 to the LORD;H3068 it shall not be pluckedH5428 up, norH3808 thrownH2040 downH2040 any moreH5750 for ever.H5769
