Jeremiah 12:14-16

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹⁴ Thus says the Lord concerning all My ^(A)wicked neighbors who ^(B)strike at the inheritance with which I have endowed My people Israel, “Behold I am about to uproot them from their land and will ^(C)uproot the house of Judah from among them. ¹⁵ And it will come about that after I have uprooted them, 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,’ even as they taught My people to ^(H)swear by Baal, they will be ^(I)built up in the midst of My people.
