Jeremiah 30

1 The word that came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying,

The worde, that came to Ieremiah from the Lord, saying,

2 "Thus speaks Jehovah, the God of Israel, saying, 'Write all the words that I have spoken to you in a scroll.

Thus speaketh the Lord God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the wordes, that I haue spoken vnto thee in a booke.

3 For, look, the days come, says Jehovah, that I will turn again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah,' says Jehovah; 'and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.'"

For loe, the dayes come, saith the Lord, that I wil bring againe the captiuitie of my people Israel and Iudah, saith the Lord: for I will restore them vnto the lande, that I gaue to their fathers, and they shall possesse it.

4 These are the words that Jehovah spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah.

Againe, these are the wordes that the Lord spake concerning Israel, and concerning Iudah.

5 For thus says Jehovah: "We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.

For thus saith the Lord, wee haue heard a terrible voyce, of feare and not of peace.

6 Ask now, and see whether a man does travail with child: why do I see every man with his hands on his waist, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness?

Demand now and beholde, if man trauayle with childe? wherefore doe I beholde euery man with his hands on his loynes as a woman in trauaile, and all faces are turned into a palenesse?

7 Alas, for that day is great, so that none is like it. It is even the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.

Alas, for this day is great: none hath bene like it: it is euen the time of Iaakobs trouble, yet shall he be deliuered from it.

8 It shall come to pass in that day," says Jehovah of hosts, "that I will break his yoke from off your neck, and will burst your bonds; and strangers shall no more make him their bondservant;

For in that day, sayth the Lord of hostes, I will breake his yoke from off thy necke, and breake thy bondes, and strangers shall no more serue themselues of him.

9 but they shall serve Jehovah their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up to them.

But they shall serue the Lord their God, and Dauid their King, whom I will raise vp vnto them.

10 Therefore do not be afraid, O Jacob my servant, says Jehovah; neither be dismayed, Israel: for, look, I will save you from afar, and your descendants from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid.

Therefore feare not, O my seruant Iaakob, saith the Lord, neither be afrayde, O Israel: for loe, I will deliuer thee from a farre countrey, and thy seede from the lande of their captiuitie, and Iaakob shall turne againe, and shalbe in rest and prosperitie and none shall make him afraide.

11 For I am with you, says Jehovah, to save you: for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have scattered you, but I will not make a full end of you; but I will correct you in measure, and will in no way leave you unpunished."

For I am with thee, sayth the Lord, to saue thee: though I vtterly destroy all the nations where I haue scattered thee, yet will I not vtterly destroy thee, but I will correct thee by iudgement, and not vtterly cut thee off.

12 For thus says Jehovah, "Your hurt is incurable, and your wound grievous.

For thus saith the Lord, Thy bruising is incurable, and thy wound is dolorous.

13 There is none to plead your cause, that you may be bound up: you have no healing medicines.

There is none to iudge thy cause, or to lay a plaister: there are no medicines, nor help for thee.

14 All your lovers have forgotten you; they do not seek you: for I have wounded you with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the greatness of your iniquity, because your sins were increased.

All thy louers haue forgotten thee: they seeke thee not: for I haue striken thee with the wound of an enemie, and with a sharpe chastisement for ye multitude of thine iniquities, because thy sinnes were increased.

15 Why do you cry for your hurt? Your pain is incurable: for the greatness of your iniquity, because your sins were increased, I have done these things to you.

Why cryest thou for thine affliction? thy sorowe is incurable, for the multitude of thine iniquities: because thy sinnes were increased, I haue done these things vnto thee.

16 Therefore all those who devour you shall be devoured; and all your adversaries, everyone of them, shall go into captivity; and those who plunder you shall be plundered, and all who prey on you I will make a prey.

Therefore all they that deuoure thee, shall be deuoured, and all thine enemies euery one shall goe into captiuitie: and they that spoyle thee, shalbe spoyled, and all they that robbe thee, wil I giue to be robbed.

17 For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds," says Jehovah; "because they have called you an outcast, saying, 'It is Zion, whom no man seeks after.'"

For I will restore health vnto thee, and I will heale thee of thy woundes, saith the Lord, because they called thee, The cast away, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeketh after.

18 Thus says Jehovah: "Look, I will turn again the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have compassion on his dwelling places; and the city shall be built on its own hill, and the palace shall be inhabited in its own way.

Thus saith the Lord, Beholde, I will bring againe the captiuitie of Iaakobs tentes, and haue compassion on his dwelling places: and the citie shalbe builded vpon her owne heape, and the palace shall remaine after the maner thereof.

19 Out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of those who make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small.

And out of them shall proceede thankesgiuing, and the voyce of them that are ioyous, and I will multiplie them, and they shall not bee fewe: I will also glorifie them, and they shall not be diminished.

20 Their children also shall be as before, and their congregation shall be established before me; and I will punish all who oppress them.

Their children also shall be as afore time, and their congregation shall be established before me: and I will visite all that vexe them.

21 Their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from their midst; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach to me: for who is he who has had boldness to approach to me? says Jehovah.

And their noble ruler shall be of themselues, and their gouernour shall proceede from the middes of them, and I will cause him to draw neere, and approche vnto me: for who is this that directeth his heart to come vnto mee, saith the Lord?

22 You shall be my people, and I will be your God.

And ye shall be my people, and I will bee your God.

23 Look, the storm of Jehovah, his wrath, has gone forth, a sweeping storm: it shall burst on the head of the wicked.

Beholde, the tempest of the Lord goeth foorth with wrath: the whirlewinde that hangeth ouer, shall light vpon the head of the wicked.

24 The fierce anger of Jehovah will not return, until he has executed, and until he has performed the intentions of his heart. In the latter days you will understand it.

The fierce wrath of the Lord shall not returne, vntill he haue done, and vntill he haue performed the intents of his heart: in the latter dayes ye shall vnderstand it.
