The word
that came to Jeremiah
from the LORD,
saying,
Thus speaketh
the LORD
God
of Israel,
saying,
Write
thee all the words
that I have spoken
unto thee in a book.
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.

say
And these are the words
that the LORD
spake
concerning Israel
and concerning Judah.
For thus saith
the LORD;
We have heard
a voice
of trembling,
of fear,
and not of peace.
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?

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.
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:

But they shall serve
the LORD
their God,
and David
their king,
whom I will raise up
unto them.
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.
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.
For thus saith
the LORD,
Thy bruise
is incurable,
and thy wound
is grievous.
There is none to plead
thy cause,
that thou mayest be bound up:
thou hast no healing
medicines.
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.
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.
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.

And ye shall be my people,
