Erven Parallel Bible with Kjvp for Jeremiah 31 15

1 This is what the Lord said, "At that time I will be the God of all the tribes of Israel. And they will be my people."

2 This is what the Lord says: "The people who escaped the enemy's sword will find comfort in the desert. Israel will go there looking for rest."

3 From far away, the Lord will appear to his people. The Lord says, "I love you people with a love that continues forever. That is why I have continued showing you kindness.

4 Israel, my bride, I will rebuild you. You will be a country again. You will pick up your tambourines again. You will dance with all the other people who are having fun.

5 You farmers of Israel will plant vineyards again. You will plant the vineyards on the hills around the city of Samaria. The farmers will enjoy the fruit from the vineyards.

6 There will be a time when watchmen shout this message: 'Come, let's go up to Zion to worship the Lord our God!' Even the watchmen in the hill country of Ephraim will shout that message."

7 This is what the Lord says: "Be happy and sing for Jacob! Shout for Israel, the greatest of the nations! Sing your praises and shout: 'The Lord saved his people! He has saved those who are left alive from the nation of Israel.'

8 Remember, I will bring Israel from that country in the north. I will gather the people of Israel from the faraway places on earth. Some of the people will be blind and crippled. Some of the women will be pregnant and ready to give birth. But many people will come back.

9 They will come back crying, but I will lead them and comfort them. I will lead them by streams of water. I will lead them on an easy road where they will not stumble. I will lead them in that way because I am Israel's father. And Ephraim is my firstborn son.

10 "Nations, listen to this message from the Lord! Tell this message in the faraway lands by the sea: 'God scattered the people of Israel, but he will bring them back together. And he will watch over his flock like a shepherd.'

11 The Lord will bring Jacob back. He will save his people from those who are stronger.

12 The people of Israel will come to the top of Zion, and they will shout with joy. Their faces will shine with happiness about the good things the Lord gives them. He will give them grain, new wine, olive oil, young sheep, and cows. They will be like a garden that has plenty of water. And the people of Israel will not be troubled anymore.

13 Then the young women of Israel will be happy and dance. And the men, young and old, will join in the dancing. I will change their sadness into happiness. I will comfort my people, making them happy instead of sad.

14 I will give the priests plenty of food. And my people will be filled and satisfied with the good things I give them." This message is from the Lord.

15 This is what the Lord says: "A sound is heard in Ramah— bitter crying and great sadness. Rachel cries for her children, and she refuses to be comforted, because her children are gone."

16 But the Lord says, "Stop crying. Don't fill your eyes with tears. You will be rewarded for your work." This message is from the Lord. "The people of Israel will come back from their enemy's land.

17 Israel, there is hope for you." This message is from the Lord. "Your children will come back to their own land.

18 I have heard Ephraim crying. I heard Ephraim say this: 'Lord, you punished me, and I learned my lesson. I was like a calf that was never trained. Please stop punishing me, and I will come back to you. You really are the Lord my God.

19 Lord, I wandered away from you. But I learned about the bad things I did. So I changed my heart and life. I am ashamed and embarrassed about the foolish things I did when I was young.'

20 The Lord says, "You know that Ephraim is my dear son. I love that child. Yes, I often criticized Ephraim, but I still think about him. I love him very much, and I really do want to comfort him." This message is from the Lord.

21 "People of Israel, repair the road signs. Put up signs that show the way home. Watch the road. Remember the road you are leaving on. Israel, my bride, come home. Come back to your towns.

22 Unfaithful daughter, how long will you wander around? "The Lord has created something new in the land: A woman surrounding a man. "

23 This is what the Lord All-Powerful, the God of Israel, says: "I will again do good things for the people of Judah. I will bring back those who were taken away as prisoners. At that time the people in the land of Judah and in its towns will once again use these words: 'May the Lord bless you, good home and holy mountain!'

24 "People in all the towns of Judah will live together in peace. Farmers and those who move around with their flocks will live peacefully together in Judah.

25 I will give rest and strength to those who are weak and tired."

26 After hearing that, I, Jeremiah, woke up and looked around. My sleep was very pleasant.

27 "The days are coming," says the Lord, "when I will help the family of Israel and Judah to grow. I will help their children and animals to grow too. It will be like planting and caring for a plant.

28 In the past I watched over Israel and Judah, but I watched for the time to pull them up. I tore them down. I destroyed them. I gave many troubles to them. But now I will watch over them to build them up and make them strong." This message is from the Lord.

29 "People will not use this saying anymore: 'The parents ate the sour grapes, but the children got the sour taste.'

30 No, people will die for their own sins. Those who eat sour grapes will get the sour taste."

31 This is what the Lord said, "The time is coming when I will make a new agreement with the family of Israel and with the family of Judah.

32 It will not be like the agreement I made with their ancestors. I made that agreement when I took them by the hand and brought them out of Egypt. I was their master, but they broke that agreement." This message is from the Lord.

33 "In the future I will make this agreement with the people of Israel." This message is from the Lord. "I will put my teachings in their minds, and I will write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people.

34 People will not have to teach their neighbors and relatives to know the Lord, because all people, from the least important to the most important, will know me." This message is from the Lord. "I will forgive them for the evil things they did. I will not remember their sins."

35 The Lord makes the sun shine in the day, and he makes the moon and the stars shine at night. He stirs up the sea so that its waves crash on the shore. The Lord All-Powerful is his name. This is what the Lord says:

36 "The descendants of Israel will never stop being a nation. That would happen only if I lost control of the sun, moon, stars, and sea."

37 The Lord says, "I will never reject the descendants of Israel. That would happen only if people could measure the sky above, and learn all the secrets of the earth below. Only then would I reject them for the bad things they have done." This message is from the Lord.

38 This message is from the Lord, "The days are coming when the city of Jerusalem will be rebuilt for the Lord. The whole city will be rebuilt—from the Tower of Hananel to the Corner Gate.

39 The measuring line will stretch from the Corner Gate straight to the hill of Gareb and then turn to the place named Gorah.

40 The whole valley where dead bodies and ashes are thrown will be holy to the Lord. And all the terraces down to the bottom of Kidron Valley all the way to the corner of Horse Gate will be included. All that area will be holy to the Lord. The city of Jerusalem will never again be torn down or destroyed."

1 At the same ^H1931 time ^H6256 , saith ^H5002 the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS , will I be ^H1961 ^VQY1MS the God ^H430 ^L-NMP of all ^H3605 the families ^H4940 ^CFP of Israel ^H3478 , and they ^H1992 shall be ^H1961 my people ^H5971 .

2 Thus ^H3541 saith ^H559 ^VQQ3MS the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS , The people ^H5971 ^NMS which were left ^H8300 of the sword ^H2719 ^NFS found ^H4672 ^VQPMS grace ^H2580 ^NMS in the wilderness ^H4057 ; even Israel ^H3478 ^LMS , when I went ^H1980 ^VQFA to cause him to rest ^H7280 .

3 The LORD ^H3068 ^EDS hath appeared ^H7200 of old ^H7350 ^M-AMS unto me , saying , Yea , I have loved ^H157 thee with an everlasting ^H5769 ^NMS love ^H160 : therefore ^H3651 ^ADV with lovingkindness ^H2617 have I drawn ^H4900 thee .

4 Again ^H5750 ^ADV I will build ^H1129 thee , and thou shalt be built ^H1129 , O virgin ^H1330 of Israel ^H3478 : thou shalt again ^H5750 ^ADV be adorned ^H5710 with thy tabrets ^H8596 , and shalt go forth ^H3318 in the dances ^H4234 of them that make merry ^H7832 .

5 Thou shalt yet ^H5750 ^ADV plant ^H5193 vines ^H3754 upon the mountains ^H2022 of Samaria ^H8111 : the planters ^H5193 shall plant ^H5193 , and shall eat them as common things ^H2490 .

6 For ^H3588 ^CONJ there shall be ^H3426 ^ADV a day ^H3117 ^NMS , that the watchmen ^H5341 upon the mount ^H2022 Ephraim ^H669 shall cry ^H7121 , Arise ^H6965 ye , and let us go up ^H5927 to Zion ^H6726 unto ^H413 ^PREP the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS our God ^H430 .

7 For ^H3588 ^CONJ thus ^H3541 saith ^H559 ^VQQ3MS the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS ; Sing ^H7442 with gladness ^H8057 for Jacob ^H3290 , and shout ^H6670 among the chief ^H7218 ^B-NMS of the nations ^H1471 ^D-NMP : publish ^H8085 ye , praise ^H1984 ye , and say ^H559 , O LORD ^H3068 ^EDS , save ^H3467 thy people ^H5971 , the remnant ^H7611 of Israel ^H3478 ^LMS .

8 Behold ^H2009 , I will bring ^H935 ^VHPMS them from the north ^H6828 ^NFS country ^H776 ^M-NFS , and gather ^H6908 them from the coasts ^H3411 of the earth ^H776 ^NFS , and with them the blind ^H5787 and the lame ^H6455 , the woman with child ^H2029 and her that travaileth with child ^H3205 together ^H3162 ^ADV-3MS : a great ^H1419 ^AMS company ^H6951 shall return ^H7725 thither ^H2008 .

9 They shall come ^H935 ^VQY3MP with weeping ^H1065 , and with supplications ^H8469 will I lead ^H2986 them : I will cause them to walk ^H1980 by ^H413 ^PREP the rivers ^H5158 ^CMP of waters ^H4325 ^OMD in a straight ^H3477 ^AMS way ^H1870 ^B-NMS , wherein they shall not ^H3808 ^NADV stumble ^H3782 : for ^H3588 ^CONJ I am ^H1961 ^VQQ1MS a father ^H1 to Israel ^H3478 , and Ephraim ^H669 is my firstborn ^H1060 .

10 Hear ^H8085 ^VQI2MP the word ^H1697 ^NMS of the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS , O ye nations ^H1471 ^NMP , and declare ^H5046 it in the isles ^H339 afar off ^H4801 , and say ^H559 , He that scattered ^H2219 Israel ^H3478 will gather ^H6908 him , and keep ^H8104 him , as a shepherd ^H7462 doth his flock ^H5739 .

11 For ^H3588 ^CONJ the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS hath redeemed ^H6299 Jacob ^H3290 , and ransomed ^H1350 him from the hand ^H3027 ^M-GFS of him that was stronger ^H2389 ^AMS than ^H4480 ^M-PREP-3MS he .

12 Therefore they shall come ^H935 and sing ^H7442 in the height ^H4791 of Zion ^H6726 , and shall flow together ^H5102 to ^H413 ^PREP the goodness ^H2898 of the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS , for ^H5921 ^PREP wheat ^H1715 , and for ^H5921 ^PREP wine ^H8492 , and for ^H5921 ^PREP oil ^H3323 , and for ^H5921 ^PREP the young ^H1121 of the flock ^H6629 ^NMS and of the herd ^H1241 ^W-NMS : and their soul ^H5315 ^CFS-3MP shall be ^H1961 ^W-VQQ3FS as a watered ^H7302 garden ^H1588 ^K-CMS ; and they shall not ^H3808 ^W-NPAR sorrow ^H1669 any more ^H3254 ^VHY3MP at all .

13 Then ^H227 ^ADV shall the virgin ^H1330 rejoice ^H8055 in the dance ^H4234 , both young men ^H970 and old ^H2205 ^W-AMP together ^H3162 ^ADV-3MS : for I will turn ^H2015 their mourning ^H60 into joy ^H8342 , and will comfort ^H5162 them , and make them rejoice ^H8055 from their sorrow ^H3015 .

14 And I will satiate ^H7301 the soul ^H5315 ^GFS of the priests ^H3548 with fatness ^H1880 , and my people ^H5971 shall be satisfied with my goodness ^H2898 , saith ^H5002 the LORD ^H3068 ^NAME-4MS .

15 Thus ^H3541 saith ^H559 ^VQQ3MS the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS ; A voice ^H6963 ^CMS was heard ^H8085 in Ramah ^H7414 , lamentation ^H5092 , and bitter ^H8563 weeping ^H1065 ; Rachel ^H7354 weeping ^H1058 for ^H5921 ^PREP her children ^H1121 ^CMP-3FS refused ^H3985 ^VPQ3FS to be comforted ^H5162 for ^H5921 ^PREP her children ^H1121 ^CMP-3FS , because ^H3588 ^CONJ they were not ^H369 ^ADV-3MS .

16 Thus ^H3541 saith ^H559 ^VQQ3MS the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS ; Refrain ^H4513 thy voice ^H6963 from weeping ^H1065 , and thine eyes ^H5869 from tears ^H1832 : for ^H3588 ^CONJ thy work ^H6468 shall be ^H3426 ^PART rewarded ^H7939 , saith ^H5002 the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS ; and they shall come again ^H7725 from the land ^H776 ^M-NFS of the enemy ^H341 .

17 And there is ^H3426 hope ^H8615 ^NFS in thine end ^H319 , saith ^H5002 the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS , that thy children ^H1121 ^NMP shall come again ^H7725 to their own border ^H1366 .

18 I have surely heard ^H8085 ^VQFA Ephraim ^H669 bemoaning himself ^H5110 thus ; Thou hast chastised ^H3256 me , and I was chastised ^H3256 , as a bullock ^H5695 unaccustomed ^H3925 to the yoke : turn ^H7725 ^VHI2MS thou me , and I shall be turned ^H7725 ; for ^H3588 ^CONJ thou ^H859 ^PPRO-2MS art the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS my God ^H430 ^CMP-1MS .

19 Surely ^H3588 ^CONJ after that ^H310 ^PREP I was turned ^H7725 , I repented ^H5162 ^VNQ1MS ; and after that ^H310 I was instructed ^H3045 , I smote ^H5606 upon ^H5921 ^PREP my thigh ^H3409 : I was ashamed ^H954 , yea , even ^H1571 ^W-CONJ confounded ^H3637 , because ^H3588 ^CONJ I did bear ^H5375 ^VQQ1MS the reproach ^H2781 of my youth ^H5271 ^CMP-1MS .

20 Is Ephraim ^H669 my dear ^H3357 son ^H1121 ? is he a pleasant ^H8191 child ^H3206 ? for ^H3588 ^CONJ since ^H1767 I spoke ^H1696 against him , I do earnestly remember ^H2142 him still ^H5750 ^ADV : therefore ^H3651 ^ADV my bowels ^H4578 ^CMP-1MS are troubled ^H1993 for him ; I will surely have mercy ^H7355 upon him , saith ^H5002 the LORD ^H3068 ^NAME-4MS .

21 Set thee up ^H5324 waymarks ^H6725 , make ^H7760 thee high heaps ^H8564 : set ^H7896 thine heart ^H3820 toward the highway ^H4546 , even the way ^H1870 ^NMS which thou wentest ^H1980 : turn again ^H7725 , O virgin ^H1330 of Israel ^H3478 , turn again ^H7725 to ^H413 ^PREP these ^H428 ^DPRO thy cities ^H5892 .

22 How long ^H5704 ^PREP wilt thou go about ^H2559 , O thou backsliding ^H7728 daughter ^H1323 ? for ^H3588 ^CONJ the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS hath created ^H1254 a new thing ^H2319 in the earth ^H776 ^B-NFS , A woman ^H5347 shall compass ^H5437 a man ^H1397 ^NMS .

23 Thus ^H3541 saith ^H559 ^VQQ3MS the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS of hosts ^H6635 , the God ^H430 ^CDP of Israel ^H3478 ; As yet ^H5750 ^ADV they shall use ^H559 ^VQY3MP this ^H2088 ^D-PMS speech ^H1697 ^D-NMS in the land ^H776 ^B-GFS of Judah ^H3063 and in the cities ^H5892 thereof , when I shall bring again ^H7725 their captivity ^H7622 ; The LORD ^H3068 ^EDS bless ^H1288 thee , O habitation ^H5116 of justice ^H6664 ^NMS , and mountain ^H2022 ^CMS of holiness ^H6944 .

24 And there shall dwell ^H3427 in Judah ^H3063 itself , and in all ^H3605 ^W-CMS the cities ^H5892 thereof together ^H3162 ^ADV-3MS , husbandmen ^H406 , and they that go forth ^H5265 with flocks ^H5739 .

25 For ^H3588 ^CONJ I have satiated ^H7301 the weary ^H5889 soul ^H5315 ^GFS , and I have replenished ^H4390 every ^H3605 ^W-CMS sorrowful ^H1669 soul ^H5315 ^GFS .

26 Upon ^H5921 ^PREP this ^H2063 ^DPRO I awaked ^H6974 , and beheld ^H7200 ; and my sleep ^H8142 was sweet ^H6149 unto me .

27 Behold ^H2009 ^IJEC , the days ^H3117 ^NMP come ^H935 , saith ^H5002 the LORD ^H3068 ^EDS , that I will sow ^H2232 the house ^H1004 ^CMS of Israel ^H3478 and the house ^H1004 ^CMS of Judah ^H3063 with the seed ^H2233 ^NMS of man ^H120 ^NMS , and with the seed ^H2233 of beast ^H929 .

28 And it shall come to pass ^H1961 ^W-VQQ3MS , that like as ^H834 ^K-RPRO I have watched ^H8245 over ^H5921 ^PREP-3MP them , to pluck up ^H5428 , and to break down ^H5422 , and to throw down ^H2040 , and to destroy ^H6 , and to afflict ^H7489 ; so ^H3651 ^ADV will I watch ^H8245 over ^H5921 ^PREP-3MP them , to build ^H1129 , and to plant ^H5193 , saith ^H5002 the LORD ^H3068 ^NAME-4MS .

29 In those ^H1992 ^D-PPRO-3MP days ^H3117 ^BD-NMP they shall say ^H559 ^VQY3MP no ^H3808 ^NADV more ^H5750 ^ADV , The fathers ^H1 have eaten ^H398 a sour grape ^H1155 , and the children ^H1121 ^NMP \'s teeth ^H8127 ^W-CMD are set on edge ^H6949 .
