Jeremiah 31:1-6 ▼

1 “At that time,” declares Yahweh, “I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be My people.”

2 Thus says Yahweh, “The people who survived the sword Found grace in the wilderness— Israel, when it went to find its relief.”

3 Yahweh appeared to him from afar, saying, “I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore I have drawn you with lovingkindness.

4 Again I will build you, and you will be rebuilt, O virgin of Israel! Again you will take up your tambourines And go forth to the dances of those celebrating.

5 Again you will plant vineyards On the hills of Samaria; The planters will plant And will enjoy them.

6 For there will be a day when watchmen On the hills of Ephraim call out, ‘Arise, and let us go up to Zion, To Yahweh our God.’”
