Jeremiah 31:16-18
1599 Geneva Bible
16 Thus saith the Lord, Refrain the voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears: for thy work shall be rewarded, saith the Lord, and they shall come again from the land of the enemy:
17 And there is hope in thine end, saith the Lord, that thy children shall come again to their own borders.
18 I have heard [a]Ephraim lamenting thus, Thou hast corrected me, and I was chastised as an [b]untamed calf: [c]convert thou me, and I shall be converted: for thou art the Lord my God.
