Jeremiah 30:14-24

Jeremiah 30:14-24

[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.  [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. [16] Therefore all they that devour  and all thine adversaries,  into captivity;  and they that spoil  thee shall be a spoil,  and all that prey  upon thee will I give  for a prey.  [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.  [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  [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.  [20] Their children  also shall be as aforetime,  and their congregation  shall be established  before  me, and I will punish  all that oppress  [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.  [22] And ye shall be my people,  and I will be your God.  [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.  [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.
