Jeremiah 30:18-20

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁸ “Thus says the Lord:
Behold, I will restore the fortunes of the tents of Jacob,
    and have compassion on his dwellings;
the city shall be rebuilt upon its mound,
    and the palace shall stand where it used to be.
¹⁹ Out of them shall come songs of thanksgiving,
    and the voices of those who make merry.
I will multiply them, and they shall not be few;
    I will make them honored, and they shall not be small.
²⁰ Their children shall be as they were of old,
    and their congregation shall be established before me;
    and I will punish all who oppress them.
