1While Jeremiah was still confined in the courtyard of the guard, the word of the LORD came to him a second time:1While he was still confined in the guard's courtyard, the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah a second time:
2“Thus says the LORD who made the earth, the LORD who formed it and established it, the LORD is His name:2"The LORD who made the earth, the LORD who forms it to establish it, Yahweh is His name, says this:
3Call to Me, and I will answer and show you great and unsearchable things you do not know.3Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and incomprehensible things you do not know.
4For this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says about the houses of this city and the palaces of the kings of Judah that have been torn down for defense against the siege ramps and the sword:4For this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says concerning the houses of this city and the palaces of Judah's kings, the ones torn down for defense against the siege ramps and the sword:
5The Chaldeans are coming to fight and to fill those places with the corpses of the men I will strike down in My anger and in My wrath. I have hidden My face from this city because of all its wickedness.5The people coming to fight the Chaldeans will fill the houses with the corpses of their own men that I strike down in My wrath and rage. I have hidden My face from this city because of all their evil.
6Nevertheless, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal its people and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth.6Yet I will certainly bring health and healing to it and will indeed heal them. I will let them experience the abundance of peace and truth.
7I will restore Judah and Israel from captivity and will rebuild them as in former times.7I will restore the fortunes of Judah and of Israel and will rebuild them as in former times.
8And I will cleanse them from all the iniquity they have committed against Me, and will forgive all their sins of rebellion against Me.8I will purify them from all the wrongs they have committed against Me, and I will forgive all the wrongs they have committed against Me, rebelling against Me.
9So this city will bring Me renown, joy, praise, and glory before all the nations of the earth, who will hear of all the good I do for it. They will tremble in awe because of all the goodness and prosperity that I will provide for it.9This city will bear on My behalf a name of joy, praise, and glory before all the nations of the earth, who will hear of all the good I will do for them. They will tremble with awe because of all the good and all the peace I will bring about for them.
10This is what the LORD says: In this place you say is a wasteland without man or beast, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem that are deserted—inhabited by neither man nor beast—there will be heard again10"This is what the LORD says: In this place, which you say is a ruin, without man or beast--that is, in Judah's cities and Jerusalem's streets that are a desolation without man, without inhabitant, and without beast--there will be heard again
11the sounds of joy and gladness, the voices of the bride and bridegroom, and the voices of those bringing thank offerings into the house of the LORD, saying: ‘Give thanks to the LORD of Hosts, for the LORD is good; His loving devotion endures forever.’ For I will restore the land from captivity as in former times, says the LORD.11a sound of joy and gladness, the voice of the groom and the bride, and the voice of those saying, Praise the LORD of Hosts, for the LORD is good; His faithful love endures forever as they bring thank offerings to the temple of the LORD. For I will restore the fortunes of the land as in former times, says the LORD.
12This is what the LORD of Hosts says: In this desolate place, without man or beast, and in all its cities, there will once more be pastures for shepherds to rest their flocks.12"This is what the LORD of Hosts says: In this desolate place--without man or beast--and in all its cities there will once more be a grazing land where shepherds may rest flocks.
13In the cities of the hill country, the foothills, and the Negev, in the land of Benjamin and the cities surrounding Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, the flocks will again pass under the hands of the one who counts them, says the LORD.13The flocks will again pass under the hands of the one who counts them in the cities of the hill country, the cities of the Judean foothills, the cities of the Negev, the land of Benjamin--the cities surrounding Jerusalem and Judah's cities, says the LORD.
14Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will fulfill the gracious promise that I have spoken to the house of Israel and the house of Judah.14"Look, the days are coming"-- this is the LORD's declaration-- "when I will fulfill the good promises that I have spoken concerning the house of Israel and the house of Judah.
15In those days and at that time I will cause to sprout for David a righteous Branch, and He will administer justice and righteousness in the land.15In those days and at that time I will cause a Righteous Branch to sprout up for David, and He will administer justice and righteousness in the land.
16In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell securely, and this is the name by which it will be called: The LORD Our Righteousness.16In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell securely, and this is what she will be named: Yahweh Our Righteousness.
17For this is what the LORD says: David will never lack a man to sit on the throne of the house of Israel,17"For this is what the LORD says: David will never fail to have a man sitting on the throne of the house of Israel.
18nor will the priests who are Levites ever fail to have a man before Me to offer burnt offerings, to burn grain offerings, and to present sacrifices.”18The Levitical priests will never fail to have a man always before Me to offer burnt offerings, to burn grain offerings, and to make sacrifices."
19And the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:19The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
20“This is what the LORD says: If you can break My covenant with the day and My covenant with the night, so that day and night cease to occupy their appointed time,20"This is what the LORD says: If you can break My covenant with the day and My covenant with the night so that day and night cease to come at their regular time,
21then My covenant may also be broken with David My servant and with My ministers the Levites who are priests, so that David will not have a son to reign on his throne.21then also My covenant with My servant David may be broken so that he will not have a son reigning on his throne, and the Levitical priests will not be My ministers.
22As the hosts of heaven cannot be counted and as the sand on the seashore cannot be measured, so too will I multiply the descendants of My servant David and the Levites who minister before Me.”22The hosts of heaven cannot be counted; the sand of the sea cannot be measured. So, too, I will make the descendants of My servant David and the Levites who minister to Me innumerable."
23Moreover, the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:23The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah:
24“Have you not noticed what these people are saying: ‘The LORD has rejected the two families He had chosen’? So they despise My people and no longer regard them as a nation.24"Have you not noticed what these people have said? They say, 'The LORD has rejected the two families He had chosen.' My people are treated with contempt and no longer regarded as a nation among them.
25This is what the LORD says: If I have not established My covenant with the day and the night and the fixed order of heaven and earth,25This is what the LORD says: If I do not keep My covenant with the day and with the night and fail to establish the fixed order of heaven and earth,
26then I would also reject the descendants of Jacob and of My servant David, so as not to take from his descendants rulers over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. For I will restore them from captivity and will have compassion on them.”26then I might also reject the seed of Jacob and of My servant David--not taking from his descendants rulers over the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Instead, I will restore their fortunes and have compassion on them."
