Jeremiah 30:18-20

New Catholic Bible

¹⁸ Thus says the Lord:
    I will restore the tents of Jacob
    and have compassion for his dwellings.
The city will be rebuilt on its hill
    and the citadel restored on its traditional site.
¹⁹ From them will come forth songs of thanksgiving
    and the sounds of rejoicing.
I will increase their number;
    they will not diminish.
I will make them honored;
    no longer will they be disdained.
²⁰ Their sons will be as they formerly were,
    and their community will be firmly established;
    any who try to oppress them, I will punish.
