Jeremiah 12:14-16

Common English Bible

¹⁴ The Lord proclaims: The evil nations have seized the land^[a] that I gave my people Israel. I’m going to dig them up from their own lands, and I will dig up the people of Judah from among them. ¹⁵ And after I have dug them up, I will again have compassion on them and restore their inheritance and their land. ¹⁶ And then, if they will learn the ways of my people, to make a solemn pledge in my name, “As the Lord lives,” just as they once taught my people to swear to Baal, then they will be built up in the midst of my people.
