1 The word which was to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying, 2 Thus said Jehovah God of Israel, saying, Write for thee all the words which I spake to thee upon the writing. 3 For behold, the days coming, says Jehovah, and I turned back the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, said Jehovah: and I turned them back to the land which I gave to their fathers, and they shall inherit it. 4 And these the words which Jehovah spake to Israel and to Judah. 5 For thus said Jehovah; We heard the voice of fear and of terror, and not of peace. 6 Ask ye now, and see if a male brought forth? wherefore did I see every man his hands upon his loins as she bringing forth, and all faces were turned to paleness? 7 Alas! for that day is great from none being like it: and this the time of straits to Jacob and he shall be saved from it. 8 And it was in that day, says Jehovah of armies, I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and I will tear away thy bonds, and strangers shall no more serve upon him. 9 And they served Jehovah their God, and David their king whom I will raise up to them.
