Jeremiah 30:10-17

New International Version

¹⁰ “‘So do not be afraid,^(A) Jacob my servant;^(B)
    do not be dismayed, Israel,’
declares the Lord.
‘I will surely save^(C) you out of a distant place,
    your descendants from the land of their exile.
Jacob will again have peace and security,^(D)
    and no one will make him afraid.^(E)
11 I am with you^(F) and will save you,’
    declares the Lord.
‘Though I completely destroy all the nations
    among which I scatter you,
    I will not completely destroy^(G) you.
I will discipline^(H) you but only in due measure;
    I will not let you go entirely unpunished.’^(I)

“‘Your wound^(J) is incurable,
    your injury beyond healing.^(K)
13 There is no one to plead your cause,^(L)
    no remedy for your sore,
    no healing^(M) for you.
¹⁴ All your allies^(N) have forgotten you;
    they care nothing for you.
I have struck you as an enemy^(O) would
    and punished you as would the cruel,^(P)
because your guilt is so great
    and your sins^(Q) so many.
¹⁵ Why do you cry out over your wound,
    your pain that has no cure?^(R)
Because of your great guilt and many sins
    I have done these things to you.^(S)

¹⁶ “‘But all who devour^(T) you will be devoured;
    all your enemies will go into exile.^(U)
Those who plunder^(V) you will be plundered;
    all who make spoil of you I will despoil.
¹⁷ But I will restore you to health
    and heal^(W) your wounds,’
declares the Lord,
‘because you are called an outcast,^(X)
    Zion for whom no one cares.’^(Y)
