Jeremiah:31:3-12
Seeker Overlay ON
*
The LORD hath appeared of old unto me ,
saying ,
Yea ,
I have loved thee with an everlasting love :
therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee .
*
Again I will build thee ,
and thou shalt be built ,
O virgin of Israel Yisra #
el #:
thou shalt again be adorned with thy tabrets ,
and shalt go forth in the dances of them that make merry .
*
Thou shalt yet plant vines upon the mountains of Samaria :
the planters shall plant ,
and shall eat them as common things .
*
For there shall be a day ,
that the watchmen upon the mount Ephraim shall cry ,
Arise ye ,
and let us go up to Zion unto the LORD our God .
*
For thus saith the LORD ;
Sing with gladness for Jacob Ya #
aqob #,
and shout among the chief of the nations :
publish ye ,
praise ye ,
and say ,
O LORD ,
save thy people ,
the remnant of Israel Yisra #
el #.
*
Behold ,
I will bring them from the north country ,
and gather them from the coasts of the earth ,
and with them the blind and the lame ,
the woman with child and her that travaileth with child together :
a great company shall return thither .
*
They shall come with weeping ,
and with supplications will I lead them :
I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way ,
wherein they shall not stumble :
for I am a father to Israel Yisra #
el #,
and Ephraim is my firstborn .
*
Hear the word of the LORD ,
O ye nations ,
and declare it in the isles afar off ,
and say ,
He that scattered Israel will gather him ,
and keep him ,
as a shepherd doth his flock .
*
For the LORD hath redeemed Jacob Ya #
aqob #,
and ransomed him from the hand of him that was stronger than he .
*
Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion ,
and shall flow together to the goodness of the LORD ,
for wheat ,
and for wine ,
and for oil ,
and for the young of the flock and of the herd :
and their soul shall be as a watered garden ;
and they shall not sorrow any more at all .
