Jeremiah 30

1 God sheweth Jeremiah the return of the Jews. 4 After their trouble they shall have deliverance. 10 He comforteth Jacob. 18 Their return shall be gracious. 23 Wrath shall fall on the wicked.

 30:1 ¶ The word which came unto Jeremiah, from Yahweh, saying:—

 30:2 Thus, speaketh Yahweh, God of Israel, saying,—Write thee all the words which I have spoken unto thee, in a scroll;

 30:3 For lo! days are coming, Declareth Yahweh, when I will turn the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, Saith Yahweh,—and will bring them back into the land which I gave to their fathers, that they might possess it.

 30:4 Now, these, are the words which Yahweh hath spoken against Israel and against Judah:

 30:5 Yea, thus, saith Yahweh, A voice of trembling, have we heard, Dread, and not welfare!

 30:6 Ask, I pray you, and see, whether a male, travaileth with child! Why, have I seen, Every man with his hands upon his loins, like a woman in travail, and, Every face turned into ghastliness?

 30:7 Alas! for, great, is that day, so that none is like it,—Yea, a time of anguish, it is, for Jacob, But out of it, shall he be saved.

 30:8 And it shall come to pass, in that day, Declareth Yahweh of hosts, That I will break his yoke from off thy neck, And, thy bonds, will I tear off,—And foreigners, shall use him as a slave no more;

 30:9 But they shall serve Yahweh their God,—and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them.

 30:10 ¶ Thou, therefore, do not fear, O my Servant Jacob, Urgeth Yahweh, Neither be thou dismayed, O Israel, For, behold me! saving thee from afar, And thy seed out of the land of their captivity,—Then shall Jacob return, and rest and be quiet, And there shall be none to make him afraid;

 30:11 For, with thee, am I, Declareth Yahweh, To save thee,—Though I make an end of all the nations whither I have scattered thee, Yet, will I not, of thee, make an end, But will chastise thee in measure, not holding thee, guiltless!

 30:12 For, Thus, saith Yahweh—Incurable, is thine injury,—Grievous, is thy wound:

 30:13 There is none, to plead thy cause, for binding thee up,—Healing bandages, hast thou none:

 30:14 All thy lovers, have forgotten thee, Thyself, do they not seek,—For, With the wounding of an enemy, have I wounded thee, With the correction of one who is cruel, Because of the abounding of, thine iniquity, [Because] numerous, have been thy sins.

 30:15 Why, shouldst thou make outcry over thine injury, Incurable, is thy pain? Because of the abounding of thine iniquity, [Because] numerous, have been thy sins, Have I done these things unto thee.

 30:16 Therefore, all who devour thee, shall be devoured, And, all thine adversaries—all of them, into captivity, shall depart,—So shall, they who plundered thee, be plundered, And, all who preyed upon thee, will I deliver up as a prey.

 30:17 For I will put a bandage upon thee, And, from thy wounds, will I heal thee, Declareth Yahweh,—Because, An outcast, they called thee, 'Tis, Zion! who hath, none to ask for her welfare.

 30:18 ¶ Thus, saith Yahweh—Behold me! bringing back the captivity of the tents of Jacob, And, on his habitations, will I have compassion,—So shall the city be built, upon her own mound, And, the citadel, upon its own site, shall remain:

 30:19 So shall there proceed from them, thanksgiving, and, The sound of them who make merry,—And I will multiply them, and they shall not become few, And will make them honourable, and they shall not be despised:

 30:20 And, his sons, shall come to be, as aforetime, And, his assembly, before me, shall continue,—And I will bring punishment on all his oppressors;

 30:21 And, his illustrious one, shall spring, from himself, And, his ruler, from his own midst, shall proceed, And I will bring him near, and he shall approach unto me,—For who is, there that hath pledged his own heart to approach unto me? Demandeth Yahweh:

 30:22 So shall ye become my, people; And, I, will become your, God.

 30:23 Lo! the tempest of Yahweh! Indignation, hath come forth, A tempest rolling itself upward,—Upon the head of the lawless ones, shall it hurl itself down!

 30:24 The fierceness of the anger of Yahweh will, not turn back, Until he hath executed, nor, Until he hath established, The purposes of his heart,—In the afterpart of the days, shall ye understand it.
