Jeremiah 12:14-17

New American Standard Bible

¹⁴ This is what the Lord says concerning all My ^(A)wicked neighbors who ^(B)do harm to the inheritance with which I have endowed My people Israel: “Behold, I am going to drive them out of their land, and I will ^(C)drive the house of Judah out from among them. ¹⁵ And it will come about that after I have driven them out, I will ^(D)again have compassion on them; and I will ^(E)bring them back, each one to his inheritance and each one to his land. ¹⁶ Then, if they will really ^(F)learn the ways of My people, to ^(G)swear by My name, ‘As the Lord lives,’ just as they taught My people to ^(H)swear by Baal, they will be ^(I)built up in the midst of My people. ¹⁷ But if they do not listen, then I will ^(J)drive out that nation, drive it out and destroy it,” declares the Lord.
