Jeremiah 30:18-20

EasyEnglish Bible

‘I will bring back Jacob's descendants to their own land.
Enemies have knocked down their houses,
    but I will repair the homes where they lived.
I will be kind to them,
    so that each family can live safely.
The city will stand again in its right place.
    The palace will also stand where it was before.
¹⁹ In those places you will hear happy songs,
    as people thank God.
    People will laugh aloud because they are so happy.
I will make them grow in number.
    Their descendants will be many.
I will cause other nations to give them honour.
    They will no longer insult my people.
²⁰ Jacob's descendants will be strong again,
    as they were long ago.
They will serve me together as one group of people.
    I will punish anyone who wants to hurt them.
