< Jeremias 30 >

1 CONCERNING THE SONS OF AMMON thus says the Lord, Are there no sons in Israel? or have they no one to succeed [them]? therefore has Melchol inherited Galaad, and why shall their people dwell in their cities?
The word which it came to Jeremiah from with Yahweh saying.
2 Therefore, behold, the days come, says the Lord, when I will cause to be heard in Rabbath a tumult of wars; and they shall become a waste and ruined place, and her altars shall be burnt with fire; then shall Israel succeed to his dominion.
Thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel saying write for yourself all the words which I have spoken to you into a book.
3 Howl, O Esebon, for Gai has perished; cry, you daughters of Rabbath, gird yourselves with sackcloth, and lament; for Melchol shall go into banishment, his priests and his princes together.
For here! days [are] coming [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will turn back [the] captivity of people my Israel and Judah he says Yahweh and I will bring back them to the land which I gave to ancestors their and they will take possession of it.
4 Why do you exult in the plains of the Enakim, you haughty daughter, that trust in [your] treasures, that say, Who shall come in to me?
And these [are] the words which he spoke Yahweh concerning Israel and concerning Judah.
5 Behold, I [will] bring terror upon you, says the Lord, from all the country round about you; and you shall be scattered every one right before him, and there is none to gather you.
For thus he says Yahweh a sound of fear we have heard dread and there not [is] peace.
6
Ask please and see if [is] giving birth a male why? have I seen every man hands his on loins his like [woman] giving birth and have they been changed? all faces into paleness.
7
Woe! for [will be] great the day that from not [is] like it and [will be] a time of distress it for Jacob and from it he will be saved.
8
And it will be on the day that [the] utterance of - Yahweh of hosts I will break yoke his from on neck your and fetters your I will tear apart and not they will work by him again strangers.
9
And they will serve Yahweh God their and David king their whom I will raise up for them.
And you may not you fear O servant my Jacob [the] utterance of Yahweh and may not you be dismayed O Israel for here I [am] about to save you from a distant [land] and offspring your from [the] land of captivity their and he will return Jacob and he will be undisturbed and he will be at ease and there not [will be one who] terrifies.
For [am] with you I [the] utterance of Yahweh to save you that I will make complete destruction on all the nations - where I have scattered you there nevertheless you not I will make complete destruction and I will discipline you to justice and certainly not I will leave unpunished you.
For thus he says Yahweh [is] incurable fracture your [is] severe wound your.
There not [is one who] pleads cause your to a sore [are] medications of healing there not for you.
All lovers your they have forgotten you you not they care for for [the] blow of an enemy I have struck down you [the] correction of a cruel [one] on [the] greatness of iniquity your they are numerous sins your.
Why? do you cry out on fracture your [is] incurable pain your on - [the] greatness of iniquity your they are numerous sins your I have done these [things] to you.
Therefore all [those who] devour you they will be devoured and all opponents your all of them in captivity they will go and they will become [those who] plunder you plunder and all [those who] despoil you I will make into spoil.
For I will bring up healing for you and from wounds your I will heal you [the] utterance of Yahweh that an outcast people have called you [is] Zion it [is one who] cares there not for it.
Thus - he says Yahweh here I [am] about to turn back [the] captivity of [the] tents of Jacob and dwellings its I will have compassion and it will be rebuilt a city on mound its and a fortress on proper place its it will remain.
And it will go out from them thanksgiving and [the] sound of merry makers and I will multiply them and not they will diminish and I will make honored them and not they will be insignificant.
And they will be children its like long ago and congregation its before me it will be established and I will visit [judgment] on all [those who] oppress it.
And he will be noble [one] its one of it and ruler its from [the] midst its he will come forth and I will bring near him and he will draw near to me for who? that this has he pledged heart his to draw near to me [the] utterance of Yahweh.
And you will become for me a people and I I will become for you God.
23 CONCERNING DAMASCUS. Emath is brought to shame, and Arphath: for they have heard an evil report: they are amazed, they are angry, they shall be utterly unable to rest.
There! - [the] storm of Yahweh rage it has gone out a storm staying as a sojourner on [the] head of wicked [people] it will whirl about.
24 Damascus is utterly weakened, she is put to flight; trembling has seized upon her.
Not it will turn back [the] burning of [the] anger of Yahweh until has brought about he and until has carried out he [the] purposes of heart his at [the] end of the days you will understand it.
25 How has she not left my city, they have loved the village?
26 Therefore shall the young men fall in your streets, and all your warriors shall fall, says the Lord.
27 And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall devour the streets of the son of Ader.
28 CONCERNING KEDAR THE QUEEN OF THE PALACE, WHOM NABUCHODONOSOR KING OF BABYLON SMOTE, thus says the Lord; Arise you, and go up to Kedar, and fill the sons of Kedem.
29 They shall take their tents and their sheep, they shall take for themselves their garments, and all their baggage and their camels; and summon you destruction against them from every side.
30 Flee you, dig very deep for a dwelling-place, you that dwell in the palace; for the king of Babylon has framed a counsel, and devised a device against you.
31 Rise up, and go up against a nation settled [and] dwelling at ease, who have no doors, nor bolts, nor bars, [who] dwell alone.
32 And their camels shall be a spoil, and the multitude of their cattle shall be destroyed: and I will scatter them as chaff with every wind, having their hair cut about their foreheads, I will bring on their overthrow from all sides, says the Lord.
33 And the palace shall be a resting-place for ostriches, and desolate for ever: no man shall abide there, and no son of man shall dwell there.
