Jeremiah 31:9-11

English Standard Version Anglicised

^9 (A)With weeping they shall come,
    ^(B)and with pleas for mercy I will lead them back,
I will make them ^(C)walk by brooks of water,
    ^(D)in a straight path in which they shall not stumble,
for ^(E)I am a father to Israel,
    and Ephraim is ^(F)my firstborn.
¹⁰ “Hear the word of the Lord, O nations,
    and declare it in the coastlands far away;
say, ‘He who scattered Israel will ^(G)gather him,
    and will keep him ^(H)as a shepherd keeps his flock.’
^11 (I)For the Lord has ransomed Jacob
    and has redeemed him from ^(J)hands too strong for him.
